Yeah. Day 2 and 3 have been my major pitfalls in the past (atkins or south beach type) so WHEN I get through those, I hope to see improvement from there. I was reading the Keto writeup from page one (Keerock?) Says one way to combat the keto flu is to drink broth. I just happen to work in a manufacturing plant where one of our products is broth, both beef and chicken, so that's the good news. The bad news is I have to remember to bring a can opener to work tomorrow. Do vitamins or supplements help? Any good ones?
The cravings are my hardest part. There is no denying that I am an addict, and my drug of choice is sugar. I have read through this entire thread and I know there was someone in here who fessed up to the same. Talked about eating ridiculous amounts of sugar and sweets. I have bought a box of Klondyke bars (that's six in a box) and eaten them all in the same day. I wish I could say that was the only sugar and sweets I had that day, but that would be a lie. Its a neverending cycle of eating more and more sugar and I need to put a stop to that before I end up 3 bills. Cut that piece of cake just a little bigger each time. Have just one more cookie. Even my vegetable choices were the wrong choice. Carrots, corn, and peas were the staple of my dinners.
Well, you all get the point. I knew I was an addict when I started lying about how much sugar I had eaten, or finding a private place to eat sweets so that people wouldn't see just how much junk I was eating. "hey, look at the fat guy chowing down on 3 candy bars... no wonder he's fat" I guess I was ok with being fat as long as other people didn't see why(like it was a real mystery). I don't want to see the pig get killed, I just want the bacon.
Black coffee for breakfast, Salmon and broccoli for lunch, almonds for snack, costco chicken leg quarters and celery for dinner, some costco parm snacks for snack later if I need them. Still a pretty big calorie deficit according to Myfitnesspal, but I'm not sure how much to trust those inputted foods yet, but I pretty much hit my carb and protein goal, so there's that.
