\u00a0End of Week 1<\/b>
A much better shift at work today.\u00a0 Amazing what good staffing can do.\u00a0 I’ll just touch on some things I noted while posting all those other entries.
–I’m not tired anymore.\u00a0 I’m actually energized.\u00a0 I used to feel a big slump after my lunch break but now my energy stays up and alert, even after crazy yesterday.\u00a0 I do feel more dizzy and weak if I can’t eat right when I want to.
–I don’t feel that restricted in my food options.\u00a0 I have no true cravings.\u00a0 I’ve figured out what foods are ok and what aren’t.\u00a0 I’m enjoying the vegetables.\u00a0 I have my shakes and gold coke, my almonds and cheeses, and those are doing me ok for now.\u00a0
–Eating out just isn’t an option with this diet so I feel resigned to make my own food.\u00a0 You have to be creative, but it’s such a limited source of material I can usually settle on a meal instead of endlessly waffling. \u00a0
–I’ve talked to people about the diet and everyone who tried it had good success with it.\u00a0 That’s encouraging. \u00a0
–I’m having a weird post-cold sore throat.\u00a0 Although Jack’s contagion never fully blossomed in me, I can’t shake a scratchy throat for a couple days. His nose is drying up.\u00a0 I hope he can go longer than two weeks this time.<\/p>\n

Today I stuck to the 20 gram limit.\u00a0 I hope that will pay off on the scale tomorrow.\u00a0 Ben and I talked about reaching the end of one week and how we feel about long term plans.\u00a0 We both are feeling wellWe both want to stop induction at 2 weeks.\u00a0 I’m going to move up to the next phase (fruits and nuts are ok and carbs are 30 a day).\u00a0 Ben is going to maintain a low carb diet while nixing junk food.\u00a0 No fried potatoes, he said, and a lot less sweets.\u00a0 Kind of a Pollan diet.\u00a0 He’ll do periodic weight and carb counting, but not be to as finicky as we have been.\u00a0 We both like the idea of doing the induction whenever we get back from a vacation.\u00a0 That way we can enjoy ourselves, but then kickstart back into healthy habits when we get home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here’s a couple dinners we had.\u00a0 Tossed salad: butter lettuce, parsley, red pepper, and boiled egg with italian dressing.\u00a0 Hot wings and dip, jalapeno bacon cream cheese wraps, and roasted cauliflower salad. \u00a0 <\/p>\n
