I have been on a diet journey since my midd twenties, but as I entered my forties the scale climbed me steady up to 89 kilogram and I knew I had to loose weight! After I discovered recently that I was becoming insulin resistant I had a new urgency in my life to loose weight. Not just to loose it but find a lifestyle of loosing it. I decided to go by the way of LOW CARB EATING. This blog is about my journey..... the good and the bad.....

ALL ABOUT TODAY: 10 December
This is probably often how we feel after a CHEAT MEAL!!!!!!! ;D
Today I started looking more into the food that I eat and how much protein it has. All my proteins today came to 123g. For me to be able to loose the kilograms I have to keep my proteins under 110g and my carb count under 20g. I do not count my carbs because I try to eat as little of it as I can. I was surprised today when I looked up some innocent vegetables like eggplant that has 6 carbs for one cup...... that is high. I think like we all know the secret is to keep full with the low carb vegetables like cucumber, lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, green beans etc. Not my favorite but hey there is always a price to pay to look good ;)
BREAKFAST was half an avocado pear with a tin of tuna and mayonnaise.
LUNCH was with a group of friends at our home. I turned out to eat shredded cucumber with spicy sausage chopped into my salad dressed with mayonnaise. Won't say what everyone else had......
Midd afternoon I had 2T of coconut oil and 1 1/2T of grated cheese for a snack.
I had a chicken fillet late afternoon with a bit of butter.
SUPPER is going to be mexican food with salad and tortillas for my family. As I had my chicken late afternoon I just made up a salad of lettuce, tomato, cucumber, ghurkins and a slight sprinkle of feta cheese for me.
The little bits of that and this the last while is not helping my weight to come down. Making a new commitment to try to loose some more weight before Christmas but first getting back to where I was.........
I'm not doing too well exercising. It is not something I really enjoy doing... it comes purely out of discipline. The weather is cold and rainy outside..... I know the excuses can go on and on. I made peace that in the winter I play polar bear and stay inside...... ;D
