Well, it's been three weeks and a day of nothing but Keto foods. I've lost 9.5 pounds. That averages over 3 pounds a week. I know I should feel really excited about that; but it just seems like I've already been doing this FOREVER, and like I should be losing faster. This morning, I REALLY want a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich for breakfast. Dare I take a day "off" or a MEAL off the plan? If I do, I know there's a change I'll relapse and have to go back to square one (which can take MONTHS to get back to).
Bacon and eggs, bacon and eggs, bacon and eggs - 22 days of bacon and eggs. It's a really good way to start my day, because it is a NO-CARB breakfast. I shouldn't have bought that Skippy Super Chunk Peanut Butter for the guy who lives with us. I should have just bought the creamy, because that holds no allure to me. I thought I was strong enough to resist the peanutty crunchiness. I just put a PBJ with Butter (which is how I eat it) into my Food Diary, and it is 34.8 Net Carbs and 498 calories. Yikes. What if I only ate HALF? 17.4 Net Carbs and 249 Calories. Is it POSSIBLE to still stay within my 30 Net Carb goal afte...no, I'd want a WHOLE sandwich, not just a half of one.
The temptation is strong with this one. And it's a stupid Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich. Now, if it was a piece of Marie Calendar's German Chocolate Pie, I could understand the force driving it directly to my mouth. But it's a stupid PBJ. Ok, maybe if I can make it through breakfast, the desire will leave me. Maybe if I go ahead and eat my bacon and eggs. I honestly don't know which I'll choose. I know everyone on here will "forgive me" if I have a slip up, as long as I get right back on track. I don't want to set any bad examples for anyone on here - make them think, "Well, if DEBBIE can blow it, so can I!" I honestly don't know what I'm going to do when I get up from here to make my breakfast. I'll letcha know later how I did.
