So far I am pretty happy with my results! I definitely have found a few habits that I am changing my responses to that are helping. It was crazy how every time I went into the kitchen the pantry would open even if it wasn’t my intention to get something from it. Going to grab a glass for water the pantry would open. Putting dishes in the dishwasher, pantry would open. Luckily 19 days in, the pantry isn’t opening as often as it was on day 1.
So what am I Eating / Drinking? I am mainly eating home cooked meals that have simple ingredients, most of which you can find in the recipe section. I am occasionally eating fruit in its original whole form. I have eaten out 2 times so far, wings with Family and Friends.
I have been drinking water, coffee, fat coffee, ketones (last 5 days and will continue), unsweetened tea and a few La Croix naturally flavored bubbly waters. I have had 2 adult beverages at the Golf Outing, but no others during this
More importantly, when am I eating? I am intermittent fasting. Most days I have eaten 2 meals with a NO SNACKING goal… I may have missed the mark on that one a few days so far, but I am getting to the point I am not craving snacks again. I have eaten 1 meal and no snacks 4 times so far. I plan on upping that number as the challenge goes on. I have completed one ketone supported fast for 60 hours so far. Surprisingly, the 60 hour fast wasn’t hard. I have done them before and had a hard time completing them. This one wasn’t easy, but I was able to workout and run the same if I had been eating. I am going to make a post solely about fasting soon.
Exercising? I am sticking to my plan of 20 to 40 minutes of Strength/HIIT training 3 days a week and 4 days of Low Heart rate work. My resting heart rate is staying in the low to mid 40’s with this plan and will continue to adjust based on rHR.
Results so far? So far, so good. While weight loss has been a little slow and then fast and then slow again, it should be. I am currently on tract to meet the crazy goal.
