My Keto Diet
I've been trying to maintain a state of ketosis since I left the fasting clinic. So far, I've been pretty successful. I'm basically eating all of the things I decided I never would again, at the clinic. Meat, dairy, oils. I eat creme brulee, salad with meat and oily dressings, artichokes with mayo/balsamic vinegar dip, celery with either sunflower butter or flavored cream cheese, eggs (scrambled or fried), frozen veggies heated with butter, and for snacks I eat cheese and tons of nuts. Obviously not that healthy of a diet. Major reduction of carbs. No fruit, which makes me really sad. I'm never hungry, which is nice. I've started supplementing with a spoonful of coconut oil twice a day, a green drink powder I mix with whipping cream and almond milk, and fish oil pills. Recently I added a really expensive multi-vitamin, and suddenly I've had some energy. I can sleep again, and actually get out of bed and get stuff done. In August I started exercising again, and so far I've done at least three times a week, usually more. Mind you, just fifteen minutes or so at a time, but my arms aren't as flabby, so that's nice. And the headaches? Much better. The frequency is really reduced and even the intensity has dropped a point or two. The diet still sucks, though.

Yeah for much better headaches! Boo for not eating what you want to.
I'm so conflicted, I don't know what to say.
