B/S this morning after waking up was 97, last night after dinner and again at bedtime, it was 82. Weight still not budging. I get approximately 20 carbs, not net carbs. Am I going to have to cut my low carb green salads and veggies too? I already removed tomatoes thinking they may be stalling me. Didn't make a difference. The only other thing that I am doing that I could remove is organic liquid stevia (4 drops in cup of coffee).

I walked 45 mins instead of 30 today, first time since I began LCHF. Booted up my Wii U yesterday. I have 'Just Dance' that I used briefly yesterday, but at least I am moving. I really just want to play 'Guitar Hero' but I have no one to play against and that isn't exercise, that is just fun. LOL!

Didn't rain today and it has been a really nice day!

Hope everyone's day has treated them good!

Still learning how to take pics. LOL! I was using phone fs app, chose dinner to post a pic and 'Voila'! I guess it didn't post to dinner...

So... My Ogre and I had to go to the city and meet w/CPA to finalize our taxes. Time on our hands before our appt, so we went and had a nice time together over dinner at 'Cool Hand Luke's Steakhouse'. I enjoyed 1/2 of 10 oz prime rib, gave green beans to my Ogre (they were sweet), he gave me his steamed broccoli, picked out the croutons from my salad and ate 1/2, squeezed lemon in my unsweetened iced tea.

Weight the same this morning. I saw the scale number fluctuate down, got really excited, to watch them dial in on yesterday's number. I know my body is going to run out of sugar pretty soon. I think I will throw in some longer walks starting in the morning in between the rain.

My scale is still riding the wild river rapids, back up 1lb. I am following Diet Doctor, but I did sneak over to Keto Connect and used the Keto Macro Calculator. It shows that I should have less fat and more protein. So confusing... :(

My water intake has been great. Although, now I am getting up 3x a night to visit the 'Tinkle Winkle' room. LOL! Guess I need to get more in earlier in the day than later.

Ordered all of my new handy dandy GI magic pills and liquids that my doctor recommended. It made me queasy just looking online at a jug of Miralax. YUK!

Wondering if I should go ahead and bite the bullet and buy a ketone testing kit. At least I will know if I am really in ketosis or not. I read that the sticks aren't as reliable depending on when you use them and how much water you have had at the time of testing. Don't know if there is any truth to it.

It is a beautiful rainy day in northern central Cali today. We desperately need the rain due to severe drought conditions and fire season in the near future.

Hope everyone is enjoying their Monday!

Spiritually I am happy. And, I recorded a bunch of concerts, REO Speedwagon, Chicago, and some others (Boy they are really old...Hee! Hee!) Darn, my Ogre got all excited to see them recorded and watched them at 6am while I was sleeping in. Yes...the dish fairy was here again. My Ogre made me coffee, over medium eggs and bacon! I am so glad that he didn't choose to work overtime this weekend. We get to hang out together and work around the house and out in the yard, and re-watch a concert.

Happy Birthday Momma! (The pic is of her, me and brother.) She would have been 76 yrs old. She was diagnosed with brain and lung cancer when she was 39 yrs old, 3 months later God wrapped his arms around her and lifted her to heaven. She was so beautiful inside and out. She attracted people to her like a magnet. Not a day goes by that I don't think about her and all of the times we shared. She made my heart smile so many times and still does. She helped me be the woman, wife, mother, grandmother I am today! :)

Now for the weight loss struggle: I have been in a stall for days, discovered one major problem...not drinking enough water. Added more water, next day weight came back down, then yesterday, back UP 4lbs. Today... weight BACK DOWN 4 lbs from yesterday. What a wild ride I am having. Lately, I have been drinking 2 cups of coffee a day with it 2-4 drops along with heavy cream per cup. Maybe too much liquid stevia??? Or maybe too much heavy cream??? Or is it my unhappy intestines???

I added Fiber to my 'Nutritional Tracking' settings so I could see how much I was really getting. Oh geese...flabbergasted of how little I am getting. I don't want to increase carbs to meet my fiber requirement or I will go way over 20 grams (not tracking net). So, its gonna be what my physician recommended to get my intestines happy and get rid of constant constipation and hopefully my weight will begin to stabilize and gradually go down instead of acting like a roller coaster
