Yeee--Haawwww!

The coolest thing happened! My son took leftover spareribs for lunch. When he came home, I told him to throw the bones out for the dog. He told me he HADN'T FINISHED his lunch because he JUST WASN'T THAT HUNGRY!!!! O happy day! This has honestly never happened except when he is sick. I had him go in and pee on a stick and he is in ketosis! I was worried about the low carb bbq sauce I made last night, apparently it's low enough!

I don't want to stay with the low-carb/ketosis forever, just to jump start and get rid of that hungry feeling. My poor son's body is so messed up he does't know hungry vs munching.

breakfast
nothing for me--I actually forgot!
eggs for the kiddo

lunch
almonds and cheese, pickle for me
spareribs for the boy

dinner--yoyo
chicken salad, green salad for me
chicken, low carb katsup, green beans for the boyo.

That is fantastic!!

Hey donrae, with the ketosis 'sticks', what color is ideal? The directions don't make any sense to me. Do I want the lighter color or the darker?

Ok, I just looked it up. So pale pink is a good thing!! YEA!! Guess we are doing something right!


Breakfast:
meatloaf
marinated veggies (we ate out, at a health food deli due to early dr. appointments)
water
I had raw milk b/f we left home

Lunch:
guacamole salad
water

Dinner Plans:

water

snacks: none

dessert:
boom choco boom square

Hey BBH!

Sounds like you and DD are still doing good!

Keep it up!

So, she snuck some brown sugar huh?

If it makes you feel better, when I go to bed hungry, I have been known to sleep eat. nothing weird, but strange, like a cold chicken breast, once I made a sandwich and ate at my computer desk (apparently) but didn't remember... Anyway, for my son's birthday this past week, I bought some assorted candies for my DD to stuff his pinata and "hid" the rest in my closet... Well, you guessed it. i woke up the next morning with the taste of old chocolate in my mouth and a couple candy wrappers in the floor of my closet!

I know some think this is a serious condition but it rarely happens and I actually eat pretty well while asleep!

Anyway, keep up the good work! We're all pulling for you!

Too funny!

(You know now that it isn't the end of the world to have a healthy before bed time snack, right?)

Yeah! PLUS it keeps the neighbors from complaining about the big fat guy walking past the window in his boxers at 2 am with meat hanging from his mouth!

Your neighbors are up looking through your windows at 2am?

Oh yeah! It's like a train wreck, they don't WANT to look, but feel they have to!

 

[big brown horse]

LOL! Maybe his neighbor is sleep eating as well.
