March 15 - June 15 ** Day 11 (3/25)

Goals:
1. 90 days eating ketogenically.
2. 90 days planning/preparing in advance what I will eat for the next day or next several days
3. Going to sleep before midnight ** updated to make it 7 days/week

Status of a end of day 3/24:
1. 10 days on track. Working on Day 11 - so far, so good.
2. 7/90 days.
3. 2/90 days. I'm still adjusting to DST and now my body is adjusting back to keto after an epic fail on 3/14. So I'm WIDE awake late at night. I used melatonin last night and that helped.

Apparently I need a reset button.

Ms A, you're here and you don't give up. That is big. We're all doing our best.

Welcome! Welcome! One day at a time. The saying applies to us battling carbs too.

New-ish habit: now that I'm down to 2 meals a day most of the time, I'm going to bring my morning supplements to work with me to take on my lunch. I have little tiny ziplock bags that are usually used for crafts - I can just stick that in my pocket. This is easier now that I have new work pants that are identical with identical pockets. I'm never losing my pen anymore.

Default Day 1 of 5 this week - 90 days ends Apr 8

1. No cheats - on plan food only. To aid with this I am taking a small notepad with me and when I see something I think I will throw in my mouth I am going to write it down instead. Busy tonight at the library, so just made mental notes instead of writing anything down. Cookies, trail mix, popcorn. I actually had something in my hand at the drugstore that was pretty questionable and I ditched it in a different aisle and checked out. I know this stupid game stuff with myself is stress related. I will get past all this. Still doing well.

2. 30 min exercise 5 X a week. 30 min 30+ min dancing to Pandora dance station, then kept it on and kept dancing while cooking before work

3. Clean SOMETHING. Or sort, organize, etc. 15 min + 5 X a week This isn't great by any means but at least I am doing something.

Day 43 of 90

I'm back after five days of traveling and freestyling in my native NYC, land of pizza and bagels. I had none of that stuff, didn't even crave it. The best emotion I could identify when walking past all those stores was curiosity. I walked a lot! One of the great things about Manhattan is that you can walk and walk for miles and hardly feel it. It was good for me as I am a natural born couch potato. I stuck mostly to big salads with chicken or turkey, tea and coffee and lots of water though at a family gathering I did have two (divine Italian) cookies.

Traveling throws off your bio clock including appetite. I went for many hours without eating and so caved and had beans, a multigrain bun, a biscuit, and a small bag of Lay's classic at different times during my long trip home when I was able to fill my belly.

I really did enjoy my vacation from tracking, counting and measuring, but here I am to tell about it 2.6 lb later.

Back on the horse.

Goal weight: <206 lb
Today's weight: 207.6 lb
