    I did not join last week as I had a feeling this was coming. The 6 weeks gluten challenge, I have to eat those evil carbs twice a day, about a toast worth each time for the test to be accurate as I am being re-tested for celiac. Carbs sends me down that slippery slope of eating everything in sight, I already have the cravings. So Here goes:
    • Carbs, one small portion containing gluten twice a day, and ONLY twice a day
    • Water
    • Protein
    • Calorie Goal

    I guess I will be doing lowish carbs and try to work out my new macro's for the next 6 weeks as I go along.

    Nasty carbs I am freaking starving! Anyways found some sweet chilli thins at 2.8 carbs per thin, recon 3 of these 2 times a day will do me for the gluten challenge only 40more days to go. My lunch of a horrible cup noodle thing leaves me low on the protein, but I am prepared for tomorrow. Thins with cold meat, eggs and cheese. Proper Lchf dinner with 3 crackers. I think I got this in hand now.

    Water goal - smashed it
    Protein - OK but a bit low, must increase it tomorrow
    Calories - goal met

    Thurs Sep 7
    Have been doing keto for over a week but logging now which has helped me.
    Did weights and walking and precor!
    Weighed in and hit my weight loss goal for the week
    No hunger so getting calories up is hard. Need to get more fat as that macro is low for keto.
    Water goal met.
    Carb goal met although having alittle trouble since logging on MFP w what it lists as a food items "carb" as I need to subtract how much fiber is in it and subtract fiber from the total carbs to get net carbs. double checking some of the listed foods on nutritional data sites!

    Soccer practice night for the herd. 4 kids, 3 practices and 3 different locations made a very late supper and a ravenous BS...hubby picked up Burger King while I was at the teens' practice and he was taking middle daughter to hers. So I ate the double whopper and small fries in 3 blinks like a starving hippo with the munchies. My body had the audacity to actually be hungry this morning. :rage: I think I perhaps should specifically warn him to not get me fries. And to also remember to not be a moron and bring a snack next time. Dummy.
