Here is the first week in meals. Everything I ate (100%):<\/p>\n

Day One<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Breakfast<\/strong> – Cheese omelet with sausage on the side. Unsweetened iced tea. Coffee with nutpod creamer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lunch<\/strong>\u00a0 – SkinnyTaste’s Picadillo<\/a><\/strong><\/span> on salad with avocado<\/p>\n

Snacks<\/strong> – Walnuts, Olives stuffed with jalapenos, Cheese<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dinner<\/strong> – Turkey Burger with Smoked Gouda Cheese, Bacon, Mayo. I made a cucumber salad with avocado and Newman’s Own Lite Italian Dressing (low carb and no sugar! Yay!) and a glass of red wine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

How I felt & how I did-<\/strong> Felt good! Wasn’t hungry! Like not at all! Didn’t feel tired or run down, either. I even worked out. My macros were great! I was pretty close on all the macros, not perfect, but that’s ok. The important part was I got to 20 net carbs. Yay me!<\/p>\n

Day Two<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Breakfast<\/strong> – 2 scrambled eggs (with heavy cream), with sausage and red peppers topped with cheese and sour cream and hot sauce. Coffee with heavy cream and nutpod creamer. Unsweetened iced tea.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lunch<\/strong> – Antipasto Salad. Green salad with Italian dressing. Salami, prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, cucumber, Greek peperoncinos and olives.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dinner<\/strong> – This was the first challenge–going out to a restaurant. I could have changed our start date so that we began the Keto diet after our dinner plans with friends, but I wanted to be able to make this work even going out. We met our friends at Hopworks (basically a beer and pizza place but it’s kid friendly). I got a Cobb Salad (salad with blue cheese dressing, blue cheese crumbles, tomatoes, bacon, avocado, hard boiled egg). It came with a breadstick, which I did not eat but wanted to!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I did have a glass of wine but just one.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Overall, my second day was good. I was MUCH closer to my macro goals (67% out of 70% of fat, 23% out of 25% on protein) but today I was at 27 net carbs for the day, so over. Looking over my day I discovered that my highest carb count was the avocado–ironically–but that’s ok because it’s the good carbs. (I mean HOW is the avocado higher in carbs than my WINE?!?!)<\/p>\n

But I worked out today, so maybe the few extra carbs were a good thing?<\/p>\n

Day Three<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Breakfast<\/strong> – Omelet with cheese and bacon and hot sauce. Unsweetened iced tea and coffee with heavy cream and Stevia. Still not quite the same as my coffee creamer. WAHHHHH!!!! \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lunch<\/strong> – I got home from swimming feeling the first effects of the coming Keto-flu (I think). I was weak and shaky and felt like my muscles didn’t work. I had steamed broccoli with Goddess Dressing and some pork rinds (which are kinda weird but good if you are craving chips). Then I had a “wrap”–two slices of turkey and salami and a slice of prosciutto wrapped around a hunk of fresh mozzarella with mayo and mustard.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Snacks<\/strong> – Today I had a mug of bone broth. It was good! Warm and filling. I also had a piece of cheese and, some nuts and some olives.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
