Day 14 Nope

 Ok, Nope. I didn't manage to resist the amazing desserts last night. I ate them. And some Doritos. And had a beer. None of which was low carb.

A Day

I don't want to count days. This has to be sustainable for the rest of my life. Otherwise, it won't work. I also have to get back to eating breakfast, even though I'm not hungry in the morning. I did today and I feel annoyingly full now. I'm going for a hike while W has run club, so hopefully it won't be too big a problem. If I were going running this would not be so great. I really want to run and I need to eat breakfast. I don't know how to reconcile these things. Maybe it means going for a run later in the morning. Tomorrow is run day. I guess I'll figure that out then.  I woke up vaguely more hopeful today. I guess that's from the run. A little bit of hope is good.

Day 13 - Squeaking By

 Well, maybe because I said I was cruising yesterday, but today is harder. I had too much wine last night (probably too high carb) and felt kind of rotten today. Then I had to run a Valentine's Day party for 52 5th graders (not my favorite activity). On top of that, I have a sick kid at home, and my husband wanted to share one of our favorite beers and some dessert tonight, so this was supposed to be a planned carb indulgence. However, with the sick kid and just general tired Tuesday night-ness (and the fact that I'd just as soon skip Valentine's Day anyway), we decided to postpone our mini date night to this weekend. So I had a keto-friendly lunch and dinner and put the beer and the dessert away for a few days. But oh my god. I know those desserts are sitting in the freezer and I want them so badly. Something about just knowing that they are there has me on edge. I could just sneak them and go out and get new ones for when we want them, and no one would know! But where has...

 I was doing 1200 calories. I think that's too low. I had zero energy to do anything yesterday and actually felt awful and got a migraine. I still managed to do day 3 of C25K, but it was brutal. I'm hoping eating more will help that, given that I'm exercising almost every day. I'm trying more like 1400 now. Hopefully it will help and give me more energy and still allow me to lose weight. I'm no impatient. I don't want to wait.  I also really need to be patient about sleeping. I'm not sleeping well enough right now. Last night I spent two hours stressing about everything at 3 a.m. Kids' social lives, college costs, where they'll get into college, how we'll pay, etc. It would have been much better to be sleeping instead. I'm now almost two weeks after I last had something to drink last Saturday (and before that it had been a month). I want to go 6 whole months here and see how I do, exercise-wise, diet-wise, mood-wise, sleep-wise, etc. I'm ...
