Four weeks in, what's new?
Well, my blood sugar was high (105-106) a couple of times in the past week, and I didn't cheat! That's been a bit frustrating. I've only eaten meat, cheese, nuts, greens, and a few vegetables (cauliflower, tomatoes, and green beans). Oh, and the occasional blackberry (c'mon, they're practically hitting me in the head when I walk by) and square of dark (80+%) chocolate. But, seriously, it's been a square or two of chocolate, and 4-5 berries (granted, they're HUUUUGE), and then back to meat and nuts and cheese.
And, to top it off, I gained 3 pounds in the past week. Bummer.
So, back to being more critical of my food - actually counting the carbs and not just hoping that the tomatoes I added to my salad didn't bump me over the limit.
Other things that were different this week - I didn't drink nearly the same amount of water, and I think I mistook thirst for hunger. Plus, I made some fat bombs that were a bit too tempting - they were like candy. And Mary was out of town, combined with a deadline at work, I did not make time to get my regular workouts in.
So, new day, new week, back on the saddle.
I must admit, I'm not yet tired of salad and meat.
