Today is Day 22.
Weight goal - 148.8 or lower
Actual weight - 146.8
Blood glucose goal - 89 or lower
Actual blood glucose - 77
Today is a Feast Day!
For me, that means a ketogenic diet - high fat, moderate protein and very low carb. Each day, I will weigh in, check my fasting blood glucose, find out if I will feast or fast that day, update my chart and post it here on the big blog. I'm posting it to motivate myself not to give up, and if I think that anyone is looking at this, it will help to keep me accountable.
I have been making an effort to eat more on my feast days so that my metabolism does not get any slower. Yesterday, however, was a low food day, but not purposely. I was busy working and ended up having only BPC for breakfast and eggs for lunch. I stopped at the store on the way home to buy the ingredients for a wonderful dinner, and a few minutes after I got home, my husband, Bill, vomited and we called off the dinner. So I ended up only having a fat fast meal for dinner, because I did not want to fix a meal just for myself.
So, inadvertently, I ended up losing weight and I hit a new low for the challenge.
21 DAYS DOWN. 70 DAYS TO GO.
18 FEAST DAYS AND 4 FAST DAYS.
7.2 POUNDS GONE. 10.8 POUNDS TO GO.
40% OF THE WAY TO MY GOAL AFTER ONLY 24% OF THE DAYS!
AVERAGE WEIGHT SO FAR - 149.5 AVERAGE BLOOD GLUCOSE SO FAR - 87

I made a few charts to track my progress. The orange lines are my goals. The blue lines are my actual results. The last chart is a little heat map to show at a glance how often I actually have to fast to achieve the results I am after.
