Popcorn and being out of ketosis-Sophie
I went to a dance club and was having some fun with friends. We were throwing popcorn at each other and catching it in our mouths.
I thought that having a few peices couldnt hurt....boy was I wrong! It was all fun that time, and I got really into it. We made a huge mess and a lot of the popcorn ended up on the floor.
I was really tired for the next 3 days and i feel tired and lethargic and really sleepy when i have carbs. This is why I like to stay low carb. I thought the feelings would go away after a couple of days on their own but they didnt because i was knocked out of ketosis. So yesterday, I did the sensible thing and decided to go on a fat fast, thats where i made sure 90% of my calories came from fat. I had my 65 grams of protein so i could make sure i do not use muscle mass. i only had .4 grams of carbs which was 2 cups of cooked kale. I woke up today feeling good an refreshed and swore never to have popcorn again. This fat fast really did the trick, I only did one day of it and i felt good. I did not do it for 3-5 days as recommended when you are on a stall or need to get back into ketosis. one day was enough.
each time i cheat and have carbs it does not end too well, so i keep that to a minimum. i do not like to cheat because i like my progress. Some people can carb up one day a week and it works for them, but for me I just don't like the icky feeling that carbs give me so I tend to stay away from them.
I am back in ketosis!!!! I am so happy to be in fat burning mode. I feel energetic, i feel lively and I feel like my good old happy self

Mardi gras dinner-Sophie
I went to a mardi gras pancake dinner last week. I don't eat pancakes, I just went there for the fun of it. I wore beads, talked to people and had a great time. There will be times when you go to parties and events and the only food available is high carb food. What i would suggest in those times is to eat before you go. There is no reason you should not be able to socialize just because you eat differently than other people now.
I also drank water there, water is a good option for a party. I got really hungry so i cut a slice of butter and ate that. I was not hungry anymore after that. I had a great time. I think i had 4-5 different beads on me.
It feels like I am seeing holidays for the first time as a low carber. And each holiday brings about some bitterness that I am not able to enjoy the foods that i used to. each holiday I feel is based too much about foods. So I am going to start making the holidays be about traditions. Mardi Gras about wearing beads. Valentines day about flowers and lint 90% chocolate because as a low carber, that is the only chocolate that i eat. I need more low carb friends to celebrate the holidays with...
Its time to get new traditions and to celebrate every single holiday with low carb foods and fun

Motivation jeans-Sophie
I have tried on these motivation jeans a while ago, and they didnt get as high as they did this time!!! I loved Neta's video and just watching her put the jeans on and almost falling. Very entertaining. Sorry I am not as fun to watch wear jeans;)
