[QUOTE="ElNevera, post: 2100055, member: 496579"] Just for some info. I do 16/8 fasting Monday to Friday and on a weekend I like to eat with the family but with two young children I face temptation quite a lot. For example, I was making my son a sandwich and caved and had 2 slices of bread and butter this past Saturday. I knew instantly it was a mistake, I started getting hot and sweating and my mood changed and I became quite grumpy. Finding out how food effects my mood has been a recent discovery to me, that and the high bloods. Monday to Friday I'll have some combination of meat and eggs for breakfast and meat or fish and salad or veg for a late lunch and start fasting. I try not to fast but if I do it now consists of nuts or fruit. Sometimes I'll swap the eggs for Greek yoghurt and nuts, seeds and raspberries. On a weekend I'm more relaxed but do try for example on Sunday I made the family fajitas but I had mine wrapped up in lettuce leaves rather than the tortilla. I don't carb count as I really thought I could mentally be sub 100g Monday to Friday just with my standard choices. I guess if I went total keto I'd have to as sub 20g would be harder to be sure.
