Day 13

This is where I start to lose it. I weighed in today ata 165.2. Yesterday I was 164.6 or so. I know it's most likely a normal weight fluctuation, but this begins a crazy cycle of second guessing myself and then restricting myself and then worrying about my eating... all which is not good. When I weighed in, I started to think about the steak I ate the night before. It was sweet, which makes me think it was cooked in a sugary sauce. If that's the case, I hope it didn't bump me out of ketosis. One positive sign is that I was not necessarily craving anything sweet today (so far). Just one more day of the first 2 weeks... but I plan on continuing on.

For the record, I have been on every diet in the history of mankind (basically) and my weight goes up and down 157-170. So the most recent time I hit 170 was when I started Atkins. Now I'm at 155. I really won't be excited until I get out of this "normal range." But I am happy so far...

I am at the library now, trying to find the energy it finish up a research paper. It's cloudy and rainy... no fun.

B: 2 eggs, 1/4 cup (1 oz) cheese, 2 stalks of celery, decaf w/ 1 oz cream and 1 sweet n low
L: pork chop, 1 oz cheese, 1 cup cucumber, decaf w/ 0.33 oz cream and 1 splenda
D1: hamburger, 2 stalks of celery, 1 oz mozzerella stick
D2: chicken, 3 oz cream w/ dash vanilla, dash cinnamon, dash cocoa, 1 packet stevia, 1 oz cheese, 1 tsp fiber

So I overdid the cream today. A total of 4 oz cheeze, 3 cups veggies, 3 sweeteners, and ~4.5 oz cream!

We'll see what the scale says tomorrow!
