Had a celebration today - apropos not much!
My diary keeping is dreadful - yesterday I managed to arrange two celebration meals on the same day with two different friends. hmmm recipe for disaster.
Started off with a cycle ( 1 hour) walk ( 60 mins) but then had an Indian for lunch
lots of poppadoms with sweet sauces, lamb curry, aubergine curry and vegetable curry with raita ( yoghurt and cucumber) starting bs 5.5 - increases to 9.3 vr briefly but back to 4.5 within the hour.
More walking (90 mins)
Then had a chinese for dinner - prawn crackers, aromatic duck with plum sauce, followed by spare ribs , seas weed and morning glory and a glass of white wine 5.8 before the meal, post meal high 6.7 . Average fasting glucose overnight 5.9.
This morning I'm still registering ketoisis despite probably 3,000 calories and 200 g carbs yesterday !
All in all an excellent demonstration that I can now eat things I truly love without ill effect. Sure I skipped the rice for both meals, but I didn't miss them at all.
because I'm still in ketosis no hunger pangs,so hopefully I can deal with the excess calories with a very light food day today
It seems I'm now well and truly " fat adapted " and that my blood sugars are responding pretty normally to what I eat.
What a turn around from a year ago.
Now I just need to stop organising stupid days in my diary, stick to the eating plan and lose the last three stones - to become truly gorgeous as well!
