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: 5 May
I can not tell you how wonderful it is to BE BACK! The last two weeks were just crazy packing and moving to our new house in the village...... PAST THE VILLAGE actually ;) I have been working so hard unpacking and making a home for my family. There is blinds and pictures that still needs to be put up but we are almost there.
I tried to stick to low carb as much as I can during the last two weeks..... BUT OH...... It was difficult. Just when I think YES I HAVE ARRIVED I fall so hard...... More than ever I know that I do have a problem with eating sugar when I'm stressed. I did not have as much problems with bread.... but one evening a friend brought over oven baked spagetti bolognaise and oh I just ate it AND LOVED EVERY BITE! I was just so tiered and did not make even try to tweak the meal to fit into LOW CARB.
I got on the scale this morning and weighed a whopping 74.8 kilograms! A GOOD DAY TO START AGAIN aiming for my goal of 70kg!
I know that if I want to reach my goal I need to be accountable. I want to thank you for being here and being part of my journey. As you can see I have not arrived yet ;) I am not perfect and I do not have answers to all the questions..... but I know low carb works.
I look back over the 17kg I have lost and am looking forward to the last bit to reach my goal. The last two weeks was a good eye opener for me..... I do have hope that I can loose more weight but I think keeping the weight that I have lost LOST is going to be a challenge....... I have worked so hard to get where I am..... Know that you are not alone in your struggle. TOGETHER WE CAN DO IT!
BREAKFAST this morning was 2 eggs baked in butter with 2T of grated cheese. Coffee and cream.
Midd morning I had another mug of coffee with cream.
LUNCH was a tin of tuna with mayonnaise, black pepper and a side salad of lettuce, tomato, gherkins and cucumber.
Midd afternoon I had another coffee with cream.
SUPPER is going to be a chicken fillet strips baked in the oven with eggplant circles. I am thinking of wrapping the chicken in lettuce leaves with eggplant and mayonnaise.
I have tried to drink my liter and a half of water today but only got to finishing a liter. Maybe I can do another half a liter in the evening. I walked the kids to the sport grounds and back about a ten minute walk down a VERY STEEP HILL and back.
