DAY 6 2016 WEIGHT LOSS AND BLOOD GLUCOSE CHALLENGE

Christmas Eve 2015

Today is Day 6.

Weight goal - 153 or lower
Actual weight - 150

Blood glucose goal - 89 or lower
Actual blood glucose - 83

Today is a Feast Day.



For me, that means a ketogenic diet - high fat, moderate protein and very low carb.  Each day, I will weigh in, check my fasting blood glucose, find out if I will feast or fast that day, update my chart and post it here on the big blog. Im posting it to motivate myself not to give up, and if I think that anyone is looking at this, it will help to keep me accountable.

Yesterday, I had bacon, eggs, cream cheese, butter and salsa for breakfast, a cup of Bullet Proof Chai with chocolate protein powder for lunch, and chicken paprikash for dinner. After the chicken, I was not hungry, and I skipped the veggies. I had a big glass of water before bed.

5 DAYS DOWN.  86 DAYS TO GO.  SO FAR, 5 FEAST DAYS AND 1 FAST DAY.

I made a few charts to track my progress.  The orange lines are my goals for the next three months. The blue lines are my actual results.  The last chart is a little heat map to show at a glance how often I actually have to fast to achieve the results I am after.
