I should have known!! About a week ago I stopped eating cheese to see if that was why my scale was not dropping. Scale has not moved. I have been trying to stay below 20 carbs a day (normally about 10), or so I thought!! My sticks have been staying in the mid-range all week. But Yet the scale did not move!!!
I eat mostly eggs, meat (chicken and beef), Keto Hot Cereal and lots of water (I am bad on the veggies)(vitamins and flax seeds and oil) - NO SUGARS OR BREADS
Then I looked at anything new to my daily routine - I had added protien shakes for lunch and two or three times a week homemade icecream (these replaced the cheese snacks).
I checked the cream label - Serving Size One Tablespoon!!
I had been putting about a third of a cup of cream in my shakes!!! and about a half of a cup for ice cream!!! (OK maybe a little more)
One cup of cream is 6.64 carbs and 820 calories!!! I was still in the pink because I was not going much over 20 carbs a day but my weight lose must have stopped because of the extra calories!!!
I do feel that I did lose inches - I tried on some clothes that were tight last week and today fit nicely!!
I need to read labels more closely!!!
