Day 14 - LCHF Last Day??

Today is my last day of my LCHF challenge. See www.dietdoctor.com for the whole thing. It has been very challenging and very enlightening. The more I read about carbs and added sugars the more terrified I become. Rates of obesity have sky-rocketed in the last 50 years. The MAJOR change to our diet has been processed foods. What I am taking away from this challenge is; if it comes from a bag or a box, I don't want it. I will allow an occasional special treat; moderation is no longer part of my vocabulary when it comes to sugar and processed foods.

My next step on this journey will be adding exercise. I've done some yoga videos on YouTube with some success. I am also looking into purchasing an elliptical, or treadmill (I want an elliptical and SO wants a treadmill). I think I'll win this battle. He got to choose our last exercise machine, and it's collecting dust in the basement.

Today's plan: Food, laundry, and clean the house. Looks like I'm getting in my steps today!!! WOOOOOP! Hope all FS'rs are have a great Sunday!

Do you have a gym near you? I think getting out keeps me motivated even though i have an elliptical. I have a stationary bike too, but being with others working out is always good. YUP, processed food=bad. I didn't grow up around fast food, never had it, but i was fat as a kid. I chose to self medicate with carbs as a kid :-) Little did i know what it was doing to me. I think we totally can have special treats! We CAN incorporate things we like, then we don't feel deprived and "CHEAT"... we just change it up a little! Frozen Blueberries over Yogurt, etc. Your doing so well. I'm proud of you, we started strict KETO at the same time, and were in this together!!
