Yeah, another gain. I can't seem to stop gaining weight. Short of fasting -- which I don't want to do, I don't know what will stop the gain. I need to eat, but I always seem to eat at a calorie excess, even when I try to control what I eat.

I often read people saying that they gain more weight at, let's say, 1,800 calories of mostly carbs compared to the same numbers of calories of mostly protein and fat. However, in my case, it doesn't make a real difference. I think when people say they gain more weight when eating mostly carbs, it's only that carbs are easier to overeat than protein or fat, especially when carbs are combined with fat. So basically they actually eat more calories when eating lots of carbs. Maybe that's what I am also doing, even when eating "faux carbs" (actually real carbs but less sugar).

Finally, my period started after a 37-day cycle! Since this cycle overlaps what would have been my next one if this one had been normal, there is a chance that this period lasts twice as usual. I'll wait and see, not much else that I can do.

At least my blood pressure is still fine. One of my ears keeps being blocked, probably some excess earwax. Putting hydrogen peroxyde drops has not worked, so I guess I will need to go to a clinic to have it drained. Which is always a problem. With the pandemic, I don't even know whether my clinic has regular opening hours and they are only open on weekdays, when I am super busy at work like every summer.

2-pound gain. Must be all the ice cream I ate this past week!

I tried a chocolate yogurt recipe I found on YouTube, but I did not like it at all! I am not a chocolate ice cream fan, but I am a fudge fan, so I thought that recipe would have tasted like fudge. Unfortunately, it tasted more like chocolate ice cream. Oh well...

I found some keto-friendly ice cream in the small new keto store I talked about last week, which is a 30ish/25-minute drive from home. I bought a vanilla-flavoured Keto Skream (from Calgary, Alberta), which was really good. I also tried another expresso-flavoured brand from Terrebonne, Quebec (cannot recall the brand), which I did not like, probably due to coconut oil subbing for the cream. I should have bought the Enlightened brand instead. At least I know Enlightened is now sold in Canada!

I also bought some cream and made the matcha green tea low-carb friendly ice cream I usually make. It was so good, so I ate some every day this past week!

My blood pressure has gone back to normal, at last! Except for this morning (slightly higher). My BP is almost always higher on weekends. Maybe it is because I wake up later.

The Montreal Canadiens lost the NHL Stanley Cup finals, but at least they won one game. Better than nothing! We will see if they make the playoffs again next year.

My weight loss from last week was cancelled this week as I reverted back to my weight from 2 weeks ago. At least it is not a big gain. I discovered a new keto store in the Gatineau area, but it is a longish drive and a very small store (2 customers at a time due to COVID rules), so I am not planning on going there very often.

My blood pressure is still too high to my tastes. I don't know what to do, aside from waiting it out.

I am getting my 2nd shot of vaccine tomorrow. I can't wait, as I want to get it over with. It may not be the same vaccine I had the first time, though.

I am growing uninterested in the NHL playoffs, as the Canadiens are unable to win a single game and the Lightning is quickly about to win the Stanley Cup for a second year in a row. Maybe the Canadiens will do better next time, but I doubt it because they are a loss from being eliminated. I can only hope that I am wrong.
