Wow... I guess I must be really carb sensitive.
Last night was our end of the year meeting for our physician group and it was held at a local Crowne Plaza. I knew there was going to be a meal, but didn't know what kind of food would be served so I played it safe and didn't eat much leading up to it. In the morning, I blew a 79 on my Ketonix meter (which is considered high ketosis) so I felt good. At the gathering was a buffet. There was Caesar salad fixings, sliced meats and cheeses, roasted and pickled vegetables, roasted chicken, baked scrod, rice pilaf, sliced tomato with fresh mozzarella with balsamic glaze, broccolini, and all sorts of breads. On the dessert table were a variety of mini cannoli, tiramisu squares, coffee, sweetened flavoring additives like caramel, Irish cream, etc., and teas.
I got the salad minus the croutons, some prosciutto, a chicken wing, baked scrod (scraped off the breading on top), tomatoes with fresh mozzarella (scraped off the glaze), roasted red peppers, and broccolini. I only had water to drink with the meal, and after I had a cup of coffee with half and half.
I got home at 9 or so and logged in what I ate. I found that I was low on calories so I had some smoked almonds. I blew a 77 before I went to bed so I felt good.
When I woke up this morning, my acetone (what the Ketonix measures) was down to a 55! My weigh in is not until tomorrow AM, but I am getting nervous...
Any suggestions?
