A "day" off plan. Not pretty. I had to change two numbers this weekend. But not discouraged. Back on plan today. Half way point coming up.

Carol:

So sorry to hear about your heart attack. Hoping your recovery and healing goes well. I loved your story about the eggs and the heart healthy diet.

That is funny, they don't know there has been a rebellion and we don't follow the silly ideas.

Prayers for a good recovery----and enjoy all the eggs you want.

About the heart healthy diet, enquiring minds want to know...so we can have a good laugh.

Carol, I laughed at that, but it also makes me plain mad! As if eggs stopped being healthy temporarily.

Well.... I was doing pretty good but then I let some emotions get in the way and I took a dive into food and stayed there for 2 days... Picking myself up, dusting off and carrying on

Days 15 of 90

Goal of this challenge: Simply to tally how well I do sticking to my diet plan over the next 90 days.

Good days: 10
So-so eating: 3
Off the mark: 2
~~~~~~~~~~
Late snacks: 5

I was quite busy yesterday and again I didn't track my food. I had company to cook for, took my daughter back to college, then went shopping with another daughter upon my return. My legs were good to go the day following my 10K. Though I ate plenty of OP food, I was good on the carbs all weekend. The keto stick was still nicely pink this morning. I didn't snack late yesterday, so I tallied it as a so-so day. I need to rack up some good days this week.

15 days....no misses. God job!

Here's a synopsis.

3 balanced meals consisting of a variety of nutrient-dense foods.

Nutrient-dense foods include all fruits/vegetables, whole grains, seafood, eggs, beans, peas, unsalted nuts and seeds, fat free or low fat dairy, lean meats and poultry that are prepared with little or no added solid fats, sugars, refined starches and sodium.

Include fiber rich foods of 25gm or more of fiber. Sources, fresh fruits,/vegetable, 100% whole grain bread and cereal, dried beans. Foods rich in soluable fiber such as oatmeal, wheat bran, dried beans and peas have been shown to lower cholesterol.

For protein, choose eggs, seafood, poultry, lean meats or soy based alternatives. Trim all fat from meat and remove skin from poultry before cooking. *

Use skim and low fat dairy products.

Limit sat fat and trans fat (butter, lard, shortening) and replace with mono and poly fat.

Avoid high sodium foods like convenience foods, deli meats, pickled foods and cured meat (ham, bacon, kielbasi.)

* Apparently, their food service department doesn't follow this diet. They brought me a pork chop. Breaded, probably baked, not fried, hard as a rock, that had an inch thick rim of fat around the outside, which they did not "remove before cooking."

I was lucky, that due to fasting required before tests, I missed most of my meals.

It's not such a bad diet if you're naturally thin, don't have grain issues, not trying to lose weight. That's a lot of rationalizing. When my dad was in his late 70s they said he had the heart of a person in their early 20s. He wouldn't eat fast food or sweets. snack food. He always had a nice steak or burger, salad, and potato for lunch, dinner cottage cheese, and peaches, or oatmeal. He walked a couple of miles a day. The only medication he ever took was whiskey which he claimed killed the microbes when he had the flu once.

I have to credit this challenge. I had tennis elbow 10 months, I got in the habit of doing my pt counting the days here. I stopped posting but kept working on it and my elbow healed.
