Default Day 63 of 90

The mission: Deep ketogenic eating everyday
The rules: Eat less than 20 net carbs per day and less than 15 net carbs at any one meal.
Other parameters: I will give myself up to 5 passes/exceptions throughout the 90 day period, but they cannot be used on consecutive days. These are not free-for-all days, but an allowance to take into account that perfection is not required.

Yesterday: 13 net carbs

1) Daily meditation session on the cushion
2) Eating before noon (EBN).

Observation:

I am turning away from EBN on high activity days, which seem to be almost every day this February. What happens is, with good intent, I eat a large breakfast, go out and expend a lot of energy, then come home and have and am hungry. I am NOT hungry during the day while active.

So, days that I plan on being active I will NOT eat breakfast, it's just seems to be a meal that the fuel for the day from breakfast might as well be coming from my body fat.

I think it would be easier to practice this if I lead a more sedentary lifestyle but maybe not, as I lead a pretty sedentary lifestyle for about 12 years. We'll see, still experimenting with it and will practice it one down days.

Looks like you guys are having fun with your practices, Outstanding!

Yesterday: Good food, but more than 20 net carbs. I used up my last pass on Valentine's Day dinner last night. So that's it. I've got to stay focused if I want to successfully complete this challenge. I really want to do it this time. It has been a long time since I've been able to complete one of these within my stated goals.
