I've been doing Couch to 5K and have recently discovered that I have no energy to do this . I'm going to try adding back in carbs - aiming for ~50 net. If that doesn't help a whole lot, I'll cut them back out - it feels positively decadent trying to get them up to that, but man oh man, the raw carrots are soooo worth it. I've always been a lover of raw carrots, too bad they didn't help my eyes {sigh}.

Anyhoo, that's it for today. I'll try and keep this updated as to how the higher carb levels do for my energy...

Thanks for reading!

Ug, again my ketones were barely a trace.
I am going to try to cut out the shake, even though it is 5 total carbs (2 net) maybe one of the sweeteners is booting me out.

Only one pound lost this week. Not too upset as the scales are moving down. I am still cheat free after 4 weeks and have increased my treadmill walking to 1.5 miles a day.I feel a lot fitter and my clothes are starting to feel less snug, so something must be happening. I have decided not to set targets for myself as they are too hard to meet.Once I get below 310 I will re measure myself. Still sticking to induction as that way of eating suits me fine.

Day 4 of induction going on in da house! I am trying to be a once a week weigher and it is KILLING me!

I am used to hopping on the scale every day and want to break the habit. So I give the scale an imaginary high five and walk on by.

Monday will be here soon enough!

I am sooo frustrated!!! I have been keeping with the plan, exercising, and drinking oceans of water, and I am STILL the same weight that I was days ago...I know, its too soon to tell...my husband already gave me that reality check, but I can still be mad about it!!!

I just read about people, that are my weight, going on a Atkins and losing 20 pounds in their first month---I just wish I didn't have this...
