That Fat Boy Slims – The Ketogenic Diet – Day 19

Well.  Today was abysmal in the morning.  Only three alarms went off.  Two of mine at 05:00 and 06:00.  Then my wife’s at 07:30.  I must’ve fallen back asleep before re-setting my alarm.  I start work at 08:45.  It’s a twenty minute walk.  Needless to say, I didn’t fuck about this morning.

So I did the kids packed lunches, my lunch for work was already sorted last night and in the fridge – chicken curry with cauliflower rice.  I remembered to pack my almonds today too.  I weighed, as I usually do, and I’ve had no loss or gain.  I can live with that.  I had my bulletproof coffee again – same concoction as yesterday but I’m off on the weekend so may try something different on Saturday and Sunday.

I decided to change my approach with magnesium and had half a pill this morning and the other half before bed tonight.  My stomach seemed a lot more settled but I don’t know if it was the magnesium in the first place.  I’m going to need to monitor this for a few more days to see if there is any correlation but I suspect this may be the better way to do it.

I managed to eat all of my lunch today – I didn’t feel full but I didn’t feel hungry either.  And I snacked on a few almonds throughout the afternoon.  When I got home I  didn’t eat anything at all.  I got through the day with no espressos or energy drinks and, aside from a slight case of sleepiness after lunch, my energy levels have been pretty decent.  I cannot believe the change in my mood, temperament and overall physical and mental health.  I think I’ve found what I’ve been needing.

As far as my macros go, today wasn’t as good a day as the last few but the devil carbs are still low and the rest I think I can cope with.  I have a feeling I won’t have lost any weight again tomorrow so I’m expecting to remain 15st 8lbs.  We’ll see.

I currently use Muscle Food and their amazing deals on meat hampers.  If you want to grab yourself a great deal, head over here.

Additional supplements such as Apple Cider Vinegar, Coconut Oil etc. we get from Holland & Barett.
