Total cals – I don't count calories
Yesterday Food: I’ve been low carb/moderate protein/high healthy fats and intermittent fasting now for over a month. Yesterday I grabbed some chick fil a: spicy chicken meal with a coke (real, not diet-y nastiness) and an 8 piece nugget entree. I haven’t had fast food in well over a month now. I thought for sure I’d be kicked out of ketosis, but to my surprise, I wasn’t! Lol I had the fried, not grilled versions of my chicken choices and I ate the bun, I could only manage about five fries though because the chicken was so filling. Maybe it had something to do with taking a couple tablespoons of apple cider vinegar before I ate. Whatever the reason, still burning fat stores so that’s a great thing!
Yesterday Dr. visit for insomnia: Down 11 pounds so far, and I am not pre-diabetic! My AC1 test came back well out of pre-diabetic ranges, she thinks my fasting glucose being high was the result of something I ate the day before the lasted 3 days. Anyway, She prescribed me trozadone which is an anti-depressant but works for as a sleep aid. She told me to give it a month and we'd go from there. I took one pill at bed time and I did sleep well, yet still woke at 1am--however, I took another pill and although I didn't get back to sleep, I peacefully rested for 3 more hours in bed. The ants-y-ness that usually drives me to get up just wasn't there.
Today: Brooke (my daughter) and I were so hungry after a walk that when we got back to her place, I quickly whipped us up some Greek Salad Wraps with Hummus (didn't take picture, I forgot, here is the link https://wendypolisi.com/greek-salad-wraps-with-hummus/?fbclid=IwAR0r44ycGKmRnqVuSrWRvBE1BSjj8NXEpG8x5T28ilXSGpiV1BGFP1b2tME )... they’re so freaking delicious! The only thing I cheated on was buying Greek dressing because I forgot those ingredients and my shoes messed up the balls of my feet, like chaffed them, so I didn’t feel like running around the store anymore than I had to.
I’m home now and just made myself a delicious blended, cool and refreshing jazzed up Bullet Proof Coffee. Nomnomnom! I had a few spicy pork rinds before closing out my window :-)
Here's hoping I can meet my monthly goal weight by the 30th! There's nearly a 1+ pound difference between my scale and the doctor's scale. I weighed 210.5 this morning on mine with my bday suit. Yesterday with clothes on before I went to the doctor I weighed 210.9 at home, and 212 on the doctor scale.1 -
Sandy you're doing great!!! I always go by my scale, the doctors scales always seem to be higher. So that means you're almost to your goal weight!!!

@Brendalea69, I think I will agree. I just checked my scale with a 20 pound weight and it reads 20 pounds, so I don't think it's a stretch to say the doctors digital scale is off. The old-fashioned one, though I always dreaded seeing the thing pushed further to the right, was usually spot on with my home scale.
And thanks so much, Brenda! I also upped my nicotine for a vape to help keep me off the cigs. I'll just get lower nicotine every couple of weeks or so. :-)

@mistymeadows2005 thanks sweet lady! And I changed today's weight since I checked my scale and it's more accurate than the doctor's scale (212), and mine read 210.5 so I am sticking with that. lol0

Love itttttttttt 1

You are doing so well 👍❤️ For me, I will just stick to my own scale😊2

My meal featured below was so awesome! I also had some pork rinds and a bullet proof coffee to finish it off. My weight this morning was 209.4, hoping it holds for me since that will put me below my monthly goal of 210 for April.
Still working on being patient with my sleeping med prescription. The pharmacist called today and asked if I was handling my new meds okay. I told her they're fine but not working yet; she said it usually takes a week. *Sigh*, gonna keep on trying and hope it doesn't take that long.

Yum, this makes me want to add in a few low carb days a week

Your salad looks amazing! I'm going to try to recreate it. I only recently started putting chia on my salads. Brilliant idea.1
-
Wish I could make it for all of us @mistymeadows2005 @Brendalea69 @asgentr
And just suit to your taste with honey mustard Vinaigrette. I use raw apple cider vinegar, honey (organic), EVOO, and whatever mustard I’m in the mood for; yesterday I added plain yellow mustard.

Today's delicious dish brought to you by my super-dee-duper happy tastebuds! Pork rind oven fried chicken is an excellent way to get your fried on without carbs--even if I weren't watching carbs I'd eat 'em! I made these in the air frier at 400 degrees for 18 minutes, they were tender and juicy on the outside and crispy on the outside... just smash up your favorite flavor of pork rinds, add spices if you want, throw them in a ziploc, dip chicken in an egg, shake it in your pork rind mix and bake :-)
