2023 Health Journey - Day 7

Hey again everyone, how are you doing?
So, how did day 7 go for me?
Weight - went up a few ounces.
Blood sugars - Still staying high. 200s' for most of the day. Lowest I think was in the 180s.
What did I eat?
Meal 1 - 2 eggs and a sausage patty
Meal 2 - Pork roast and mashed potatoes with gravy. I know, potatoes aren't low carb. But I am doing what I can to stay on the journey...
I did have a carby dessert type snack as well.
Not sure my macros for the day as I couldn't really measure the amount of food I had in meal 2.
Tomorrow should be a full low carb day though once again.
Then on Tuesday I will go to my endocrinologist and see what he thinks about all of this.
I know on Tuesday it will not be a low carb day. I plan to get back on track Wednesday though.
Make the next meal/day Keto. That's what someone I follow on YouTube always says, and that's what I will try to do this year.
What do you all think?

@MommyOfEli2013 did the doctor put you on carb free or did you decide to do it on your own accord. I couldn't give up carbs

When I add a couple carbs here and there I don't really think that's staying on track lol.
But waiting to know what the doctor thinks.

@thislittlepennyearns Well he agrees that low carb is good. I don't know that I would just go on a diet cause a doctor says to. I don't like authority lol. I am having trouble giving them up myself since I am picky and don't like many other food groups

@MommyOfEli2013 .......To me just putting forth an effort is doing well.

Blood sugars in the 200s constantly isn't really good.
Don't think he will think so either....
But glad you think I am doing well...

@MommyOfEli2013 Should I be too strict with myself I could not stick on a diet.

It sounds good to me. I hope it goes well at the endocrinologist.

@MommyOfEli2013 What's wrong with meditation? It relaxes the mind and body.

@just4him I just don't see it working for me. I am not the type of person that could do it and relax and all that...

The plan? Well we will see how it goes. Not looking forward to seeing the doctor.
He thinks I should add veggies and should meditate for my anxiety. Neither of which I will ever do

Good to keep a track. Do what works best for you
. I have to go back on exercise regime. Flu has left me too exhausted in the last two weeks. It was awful and I didn't keep any track of my sugar.

I honestly don't know what that is though. Low carb used to work...but don't seem to. Don't want to do low fat. Sorry you had the flu and dealt with that

@MommyOfEli2013 I do not know either. Have you done any research.

@jstory07 Well I know from the past that low carb usually works. But it is not dropping my sugar or weight this time around. A whole food diet would never work as I don't eat vegetables or fruits. Don't want to do low fat...
