Hello everyone, how are you all doing? I hope well... I am back to share about my journey for yesterday on this low carb lifestyle. Weigh in - 204.4 on Monday Yesterday - 199.4 - 20 So I dropped 5 pounds of water weight! I lost more yesterday (weigh in this morning) but that will be in the next post about that. Blood sugars - struggled with those all day. I woke up high (180s I think) and I went down to the 150s before eating... but I think the coffee I had messed me up all day. I did have some carbs in my 2nd meal of the day. I didn't go over 200 but I did stay in the 180s. What did I eat? Meal 1 - Burger King - I had their sausage egg and cheese biscuit, hold the biscuit. After that I ordered a Keto coffee at a coffee place we like to order from (usually not sugar free ones) - The last time i ordered a keto coffee it was fine...but this one tasted like the normal sugary ones. So, I am guessing they added something that was not sugar free. Not sure what though. Meal 2 - Costco 1/4 pound hot dog (just the meat) 1 serving cheese Then I did have some fries.... Meal 3 - Low carb "pizza" - I had pizza sauce, cheese and pepperoni on 2 of the street size, zero net carb tortillas. Not sure the macros for the day because of the coffee. I didn't track after the coffee messed things up. I am back to drinking the right kind of coffee today, I made my own at home. Instant espresso, less than 2 carbs worth of heavy cream and some 1 net carb sugar free chocolate syrup. What do you think of the day? I was glad to see the weight drop on the scale (and dropping today after the coffee experiment yesterday). I'll be back later to share today's food and numbers (hopefully tonight).

You lost quite a bit of weight. My feet are puffy...I think I may be retaining water weight too.

@MommyOfEli2013 It happens. Probably had too much salt.
