Keto

Follow-up post number 2 to Sunday’s post 4 days ago. This is a complete chart showing my progression during the cut. Sorry about how small it is (fitting 70 days worth of data points is a lot!) but it should still be legible. The individual points don’t matter as much though as it’s the general trend that does which is the main point of the post: fat loss is most definitely NOT a linear process. You can see how it’s quick in the beginning (attributable mostly to the water weight loss as I entered keto) but slows down at the end. In particular the last week and a half was very volatile on a day to day basis but the downward trend continued. I could have easily increased the deficit but didn’t want to or feel like it given I was ending at the 10 week mark. Not to mention you will have times where you have an extended plateau for no apparent reason even though you are still in a caloric deficit and making changes then will not be helpful. Consistency is the to success. Another interesti...

Day 2 of my own prep…. Im officially mentally prepared to diet again and KILLED my first day! Im mainly doing this through IG to keep myself accountable if I disappear after making it public that I am starting my own prep then I KNOW that YOU all know I have been bad and non compliant to my diet. -Im 16 weeks away from my wedding. 3 weeks away from my bachelorette party and probably 6 weeks away from my first dress fitting. This is my starting point. To be honest I actually feel better about my body than the scale indicates 144# would have made me super depressed before but #bodyrecomposition ! Im a much more muscular 144 than I was last July! For my prep Im cutting down my carbs a lot not sure I plan to go true keto but carbs hate me and dont do my body much justice. Lol. I expect to see quick improvements just by cutting back carbs. Im WAYYY up from my stage weight which Im okay with. I know theres no way in hell this is all fat gain. Im excited to share my new journey with you all...

All greens today ! Not too bad considering it rained all morning and I got soaked going to see my endocrinologist! I have been waiting all day to share the best part of my day. I was up a few times last night waiting to see if my blood work results uploaded to my quest app ahead of my dr appt. You see I like to know what I am walking into when I go to my Drs otherwise I stress out. Which of course this morning I was when I didn’t get an email or alert from quest . By the time I got to the drs office my blood pressure was up and I was feeling like it wasn’t going to be the results I had been working so hard to get to. But after updating my endo on my recent hospitalization procedures and my glucose bouncing around especially when I was experiencing pain in my abdomen she smiled at me and said my blood work looked great. My A1c was 6.1!!! At the end of October my A1c was 9.8 so in 6 months I was able to make amazing progress managing my diabetes ! Thanks to my #fitfam for all of your ...
