Just Keep Your Mouth Shut and Enjoy the OZZY!
Here you will find posts about my lifestyle changes and results of changing to a Low Carbohydrate/High Fat Die – i.e. KETO
Wow, Day 5 included an interesting if not time consuming meal and a good amount of exercise. We spent about 35 minutes in the pool with 25 of that being pretty intense. So far so good, we are still on track.
I will say that the recipe for dinner is pretty involved and my first time through this took 2 hours or so from start to finish. 🙁 But the flavor was really good, so maybe it was worth it? We’ll see after reheating the frozen leftovers just how much so.
Here we are at the end of Day 4 and all is well.
We had a few reservations about this day due to feeling a bit hungry after Day 3. As well, I wasn’t sure how much broccoli I could choke down with the dinner meal. But, that was not the case. The meal was actually fairly tasty and the broccoli added a different flavor and was easy to eat. And for a picky eater like myself, that’s a bonus.
Here we are finished with day 3.
I will say I was still a bit hungry after today’s dinner but not so much that I was actually tempted to grab some additional food. Not sure if it was the incessant desire to make this change for myself or sheer will power, but we got through the night. Also, I do feel a more hungry on the morning of day 4 than I have the previous two days.
Hello everyone, day 2 has come and gone but we are no worse for the wear. 🙂
It seems that our meals today were decent enough. We started with an old stand-by Cheesy Scrambled Eggs, Leftover Inside Out Bacon Burger and Spinach Salad for lunch, then Cinnamon and Orange Beef Stew for dinner.
So starting out day 1 I did some measurements to use as a baseline for this little adventure. NOTE: Pictures of myself were taken of this day and will be posted later as before/after images.
Height – 5′ 9″
Weight – 274.2
Waist – 51.25
Neck – 18.75
We don’t want to concern ourselves with the daily micromanagement of those measurements. We just want to see how we are doing after a set amount of time. So will be taking these measurements every 2 weeks.
We did it, we survived the first day of our new eating lifestyle.
Good Day Everyone,
I’m a 50 year old retired USAF MSgt (E-7) who has taken up the challenge to change his lifestyle with regards to dietary practices. With this challenge we will be utilizing the KETO way of eating in order to manage weight loss as effectively as possible (without surgery). As you guys probably know, I’m a big guy. I know, I know, it’s a shock to us all.
But seriously.
