Friday menu!

i am still eating plenty of food. I have no idea where my calories or my weight is at the momnet. But thats not important at the moment. whats important is to get my body on track and acclimated with low carb lifestyle again. I promised to stay on this liberal plan for a month. I will monitor the results sometime in middle of March to see how I am doing weightwise. may be then I will start to tweak my eating a bit to fascilitate weight loss.

Steps= 24800

food= Plenty! 2 cups of full-fat cootage cheese with lots of silvered nuts, organic wild small blueberries( trader joe, awesome taste) and Truivia. Lots of steamed zuchini, brocoli and mushroom with shirataki noodles with Wasabi mayo. 1 cup buttermilk; 5 oz mixed cheeses;

Stop sign, aint it symbolic!

I have been overworked, overfed, undernurished and sleep deprived for the past few months! Today I had to get up really early to help at the office I work in the morning. So it was an 18 hour day for me. In the middle of the day I decided to walk around the golf park between two jobs. I walked 4 laps which is 2 miles each. I was feeling good except my brain was kind of on autopilot. After my second lap I abruptly stopped at the stop sign as though I was driving. Then it hit me, oh shit my brain is on auto-pilot. It hit me then that it might so be that all my recent symptoms were a compilation of different unhealthy behaviour. My body finally hadf enouph and let me know about it. And low carb induction was an added fuel! I am on day 5 now and today was by far the better day yet! I was feeling better! I did eat a lot though but I did work a lot too. Still doing ok!


Steps= whooping 27, 120 which equals to about 13 miles of walking, not bad!


Food= 1 cup od cottage chees with silvered almonds, few blueberries, sour cream and Truvia ( very good ) ; 1 protein shake; shirataki noodles with chicken sausage link and sauteed mushrooms; 4 oz of mixed cheeses: 6 oz chicken breast with roasted pepper and 1oz fresh mozarella with basil: 3 oz fried chicken wings;

Wednesday menu!

Today I ate a bit more than I needed. but still doing low carb. It is so effortless and easy that I wonder how and why I would ever get off! But dont want to wake up the Satan, so shhhhhhhhhhh! I love the idea of not having a scale and being obsessed with the numbers too! I am still having this weird palpitations and stomack discomfort, but a bit better today. I am really staring to think its anxiety related or vago-vasal response due to GERD and reflex. I didnt have it before but do now. I will have to monitor more closely what causes it. I am noticeing cheese and eggs are doing it. Cottage cheese and nuts are not!

Steps=16,150


Food: 1 cup full fat cottage cheese with almonds, blueberries, sour cream, truvia and cocoa ( awesome! ); 6 oz turkey leg meat; 5 oz lox; 3 oz salami; 2 oz turkey breast; 1 serving shirataki noodles with chicken sausage link and sauteed mushrooms; 2 oz of Gylian sugar-free chocolate;

Oy Wey! Nit gooskiy! I am feeling soooooooooo not ok!

I have no idea whats going on with me, but it aint fun! All day today I continued to have spasmnatic lower stomach, accompanied by weird arrhytmic heart. I was scared to say the least. Every time the spasm came on I felt like passing out. My heart was beating way too fast, skipped beats. It felt like Hell! I went to see my doctor. He thinks it might be some sort of spasmatic intestines followed by severe panick attack. He did few tests and sent me for tons more. Meanwhile I was told to start taking Paxil. I will wait to see first. Not too crazy about paxil. May be I should meditate, pray and relax!

I am still comitted to blogging and still on low carb, despite feeling sick!

Steps= 15,975

Food: 4 eggs; 1 tablespoon guacomole; 1 protein shake; 2 scoops egg salad, 3 oz salami, 3 oz roasted beef, 2 oz swiss cheese, 1 cup cottage cheese, 1 oz almonds, 1 tablespoon sour cream; 6 oz lox

I am still in pain! Is there a Doctor in thw house?

Today was a day I wish wasnt! I was lethargic, in pain and my stomach was bloated. I have experienced this nagging shin-like pain in both my hands and my feet. My stomack was also bloated and spasmatic. I was half the man I usually am! Hooooooooror! I dont know what a heck is going on, but hope it goes away sooner than later! May be its some kind of induction flu! But I still walked through pain today, may be i should give it a rest for few days!

Steps= 14,900

Food: 2 eggs, 1 tablespoon Wasabi mayo(HOOOOOOOOO----t), 2 tablespoon guacomole
4 oz of Swiss cheese; 1 protein shake; 10 oz lox; 1.5 scoop egg salad; 3 oz salami; 3 oz roasted beef;

I am in pain!

Today was a day of pain! My whole body was aching and even my heart felt out of synch. Have no idea what it was and neither does my doctor! He said it might be a carb withdrawal symptoms! Ha? This is my first day back doing low carb and withdrwal? I dont think so, my brain aint that sharp! Ok, other than that it was a relatively peaceful day and God am I thankful to be back! It wasnt tough today as far as cravings. I ate till satisfaction and today was one fo those day when I didnt feel like eating a lot!

Weight= 246.5 pounds ( I will not weigh for a month now ) Scale makes me lose my cool when it doesnt cooperate. Since its time to take care of my health first, low carb is priority. Weight lost will be a nice side affect, I hope!

Walking= 11,475 steps!


Today I ate:

4 oz turkey breast with a nice salad ( cucumber, tomatoes, onion, lettuce dresses in olive oil).

1 cup of cottage cheese with few tablespoon sour cream and i packet of stevia

8 oz roasted chicken
4 oz various cheeses
2 tablespoon veryyyyyyyyy hot wasabi mayo!
1 small chicken wonton as a sample at Trader Joe ( only had 3 carbs though)

Back to the basics!

I could analize, micromanage and dissect my failures recently, but I wont. I will keep it simple, I screwed up royally. And as usual it all starts with one meal, one weigh in or one good opinion of another person! No reason to do damage control by yaping my mouth. Those who followed my blog know how good I am at times yaping my mouth! I can only say that I am not giving up! It has been tough, it has been rough, but it is always been within my grab to do it right! I never blame anyone for my failures and this time is no different! I know what I did wrong! The biggest mistke I made was not sticking to the basics and trying to run before mastering the walk! I have always had a trouble closing a loop, weather it is my relationship at work, on personal front or with food! So without further yaping, here is a recipe and a plan for attacking my demons!

1. Throw away scale, and weigh only on monthly basis!
2. Eat until being satisfied, not stuffed!
3. Exercise!
4. Eat basic low carb variety such as: eggs, vegetables, berries, nuts and seeds, fish and paultry: occasional meat ( not a big meat eater here); dairy; shirataki noodles and occasional sugar-free chocolate and candy!
5. Blog daily, success or failures!
