Week 28

Not an exciting week, but a productive one. I lost 2.7 pounds and am almost
down to size 16! Following the recommendations of my nutritionalist I am
trying to keep my fats below 30% of total calories and proteins below 15%.
Not quite there yet, but very close! I've had to rebalance my old eating
plan, it threw me off for one or two days but I'm synced up now. I had been
using a spreadsheet to track and calculate my nutritional information and
now have had to add subtotals by each of six daily meals to make certain I'm
getting a proper balance of nutrition for each meal and that my carbs are
distributed reasonably evenly throughout the day.

Fourteen pounds to go to my goal, ten weeks to goal date, should be doable.

Congrats!

Thanks!

How is your blood sugar behaving on your diet?

Since I don't check it daily, I don't know. I'm having no demonstrable
symptoms of high BG like I did last year (small spells of blurred vision,
extreme lethargy, moodiness). I have a follow-up with my doctor in December
and will have my random glucose and A1C checked again at that time.

Its my certifiable perfectionism and personality type that makes me want to
keep track of everything. You ought to see my spreadsheet; it really is
extreme.

Congratulations and it sure looks like you'll have no problems making your
goal.

Thanks Beverly!

Congrats -- you're doing great! But why does your nutritionist want
you to keep your protein so low??

Chris -- who tries to never let protein drop below 30% :-)
