1/11/07 fat loss update

Things are going extremely well right now. I love low carb diets. I like the way they work and I love the way I feel.

Its more accurate to say that I love the way I feel right now. I had a few horrific days mood wise last week but that passed. I had an awful headache and I otherwise was in a foul mood. Was this due the DMZ between being carbed up and being in ketosis? I really don't know but I do know that I feel great right now.

I weighed in this morning at 261 pounds. That is down from January 1st's 278.

Is it all fat that I lost? Hell no.... but I feel so much better.

My food intake is going well. My low carb / low calorie approach is getting easier by the day.

What I have been doing right.

  1. I have been drinking over a gallon of water every day. This is a huge part in keeping my body in balance. Plus, you cant be hungry when you are stuffed with water.
  2. I have eaten a lot of whole food instead of relying on protein shakes. I have eaten a lot of turkey sausage, eggbeaters, tuna, lean roast beef, and I occasionally eat whole eggs and real sausage. That is just a treat though.
  3. I have been getting in adequate amounts of protein. I figure I need a minimum of 140 grams a day and I think I have hit that.
  4. I didn't blow it over the weekend. Usually I do well over a few days and I break on the weekend. I didn't eat as well as I would have liked over the weekend but I held it in check. The worst thing I ate was Smith Island Cake at a birthday party on Saturday but I cant deny myself that delicacy.

Things I need to do better at.

  1. I need to get my ass to the gym. I have avoided the mad rush but I cant continue to hold out. Monday I will get back in there.
  2. I need to be more consistent at work. I mean that I need to eat at work. I'm just not that hungry. I at least need to make myself have a protein shake everyday.
  3. Stop forgetting to take my fish oil in the afternoon. I'm good about taking it in the morning but I'm shitty about it in the evening.

Overall, I am very happy about the first 11 days back on my diet. Hopefully I can say the same thing after this weekend.
