I'm sleeping, or at least getting ready for bed. There is not much happening. Seriously - NOTHING. Just the same thing, different day. Tomorrow is Poon day, and I'm ok. I don't know where my weight will be - I suspect down a bit.
Because of Josh (coming the next day after Poon) and getting his info for me, I started My Fitness Pal to track my macros. I've been playing around with it, and have found, I'm WAY over 20 net carbs on a normal day. Basically around 75 carbs, and with fiber down to about 50 sometimes. Because for Dr Poon I had to write down my foods too, I realized there's a bit of a difference between macro numbers and Poon's ok foods. So I don't know exactly what Poon thinks is ok as 4 cups of 'other' veg is allowed along with unlimited greens. But in macros, even having less then 4 cups, and a little greens, I'm running around 75-100 grams. Which is apparently on some sites is considered low carb. So... that means it's ok. I get confused when things aren't black and white for me. I like grey, only because I KNOW I'm in a grey area, as I know what the black and white areas are. Follow?
Talking with AJ about it, I'm now waiting to see what Josh says. I will ask him to have a clearer macro line then asking Dr Poon. I suspect Dr Poon will say a bunch of my meals have too many carbs in them. To ask him about the macros is probably a no-no. That's not how he works. Seeing my meals, I realize too, that I am semi-unwilling to go back to Phase 1 Poon foods. I feel comfortable with the foods I eat, and at times struggle to maintain. I sense I would melt down if I had to limit even more then I am already. Since I haven't been exercising lately, I also suspect starting with Josh and exercising will help me more in the long run. Will make the eating low carb foods easier to do. Guess I will just have to see what happens.
Today was:
B - cinn/flax bagel, butter, jam, cottage cheese, coffee with 1/2 protein shake and almond milk.
L - beef stew (made myself - beef, spinach, green beans)
S - slice of zucchini, slice of yellow pepper, tea/lemon (PS lemon has carbs! I kinda didn't count them!!) halva
D - chicken, bok choy, cauliflower pearls, jello, tea/lemon
S - bagel, butter/jam
Calories are good - in the 1300 range. Protein and fat are fine..... carb too high?
Other then that - not much else to report. That being said, I'm going to wait until after Josh day to write - at least then I can report on Dr Poon and Josh etc - might be somewhat more interesting.
Thus I shall head off to bed, and leave you with a post: 😄😏
