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: 1 January
Weighed in this morning at a whopping: 73.5kg! :D It is a new year and I'm all geared up to get going and walk this Journey loosing weight the Low Carb Way! I have hope that this year I will reach my goal weight of 65kg!
Through this holiday Season I have realized that making this way of eating a lifestyle is still far off for me.... My hope is to also this year learn more about Low Carb eating and bringing it into a place that I can call this a Lifestyle.
I have again come to a place where I have realized my need for accountability in reaching my goal. I have decided to go ahead and commit to this blog to reach my gaol. Each one of you are important in this process and I'm hoping that you could be encourage to walk this Journey with me in victory.
During this time of just enjoying some holiday food ;) I have started to get into old habits of eating larger potions of meat etc. Now to get myself back into place I am keeping an eye on less protein and a bit more vegetables during the day and meals but aiming to keep my carbs under 20g daily.
At the end I need to remember just to enjoy the Journey too........ Our bodies are so incredibly put together and much more complicated than we can ever imagine. I need to keep going and do what I can do..... eventually the it will kick in.
Know that you are not alone! Come along for this journey. Many blessings for this New Year.
Here we go for the first day of the NEW YEAR!
BREAKFAST: was two eggs with a sprinkle of cheese, coffee and cream.
I had another 2 mugs of coffee with cream and a T of coconut oil.
Midd morning I had a bowl of chicken spinach soup.
LUNCH: was cucumber, tomato, lettuce, cheese, cold meats and mayonnaise stacks.
Late afternoon just before we left to go to my friends home I had a bowl of cauliflower "potato mock salad" I will rather eat less there than having to eat something that will not be good for Low Carbing.
SUPPER: Our family was invited for supper at another family's home. I had to take chocolate brownies for dessert (no I didn't touch one!) There was lasagna and salad with carrot spears. I had a piece of lasagna ate the meat and red sauce out between the sheets of pasta and my husband ate the pasta. I had some of the green salad and a few spears of the carrots. I skipped dessert but had a few dark chocolate covered coffee beans.
Was a great day low carbing. I just find myself constantly hungry...... wanting to eat the trash can and all in it too :) Will take a few days before my appetite is in line again.
