what now? its been 2 weeks
Hey Everyone,
Well, I have made it through 2 weeks without any sugar or "carbs". I have been in ketosis for the majority of the time and now I have hit the 2 week mark.
What now???
I do have a couple of things to comment on about this WOE.
I am NOT bloated anymore
I am truely amazed at how little it takes to feel full and how long I stay full for. I would have never believed it until I actually felt it.
I have had to change my way of thinking about food which this WOE does not do...but this WOE helps reinforce the new way of thinking about food.
I am coming more to terms to eat to live and not live to eat. I remember at night after dinner I would usually have a bowl of cereal, then some crackers and cheese, then whatever small snack I could find. I cant believe that I was eating like that.
Also, I havent been having those tired lulls during the day or at night.
Overall, in a nutshell, I really enjoy the way that my body feels.
Now on to the serious stuff...if the scale is true...I lost between 4-7 pounds. I didnt do any measurements until tonight. I have noticed a slight change in the way my clothes fit. Nothing earth shattering but I have noticed that my super tight jeans are just tight...a bit easier to button.
Now, what to do after 2 weeks on this. I have no problem continuing the way I have been eating...I would like to drop about 25-30 pounds still. I am nervous about increasing carbs, nervous about going out of ketosis, I dont want to have to start this all over again.
Anyway....any thoughts?
Also, does anyone use tomato sauce? Like tonight I took some chicken, threw it in a dish with about 1/4 cup tomato sauce and a handfull of mozzerella. Is that too carby??
Thanks for reading
