  • NO VEGGIES?!?

    Almost caved! Not in my life did I ever think there is such a thing as overdoing it on salad. Go figure. Wow! This is day 6 of my Keto adventure. I’m fine. Cardio is still an issue, strangely weight lifting is not. My guess is that it’s the extra fat kicking in. I usually focus on protein for ene... View Post
  • First day on Keto

    I actually made it thru today without any problems at all. After focusing on the food just being fuel it tasted actually pretty good. My morning coffee with almond milk was perfectly fine. Then I had high fat veggie casserole, egg salad wraps and cauliflower turmeric soup for the day. I did go ov... View Post
  • There is that energy!

    HELLO??!! As in Pulp Fiction’s scene where Mia finds Vincent’s stash....at some point today I realized that walking upstairs does not make my heart beat faster any longer. So, I went to the gym. My workout was rather fantastic😎. 2 hours passed in a blink of an eye and I feel totally rejuvenated. ... View Post

With all the veggies, especially beets and beet juice, exercise and at least a gallon of water each day, I’m usually fine in that departm... View Post
  • Getting Ready

    I got one day left to eat as I please before I start my vegetarian Keto trial. Meantime I’m boiling eggs for egg salad, got protein powder and all I need to cook a few dishes. I dread Monday as much as I am curious about it. Let me tell you all, I signed up for a vegan diet a while back. I lasted... View Post
  • KETO Journey Day 15

    Today marks half way of my Keto month. After an amazing workout Saturday, I skipped 2 workouts. I simply could not make the time. Tomorrow I will go back in the early am. Let’s see how it goes. I think I’m able to make it thru 2 more weeks..... because I know a huge plate of pasta like you see he... View Post
  • KETO Journey - 8 Days to go :)

    Today I stuffed zucchini and portobello mushrooms with a mixture of spinach, ricotta and feta. Garnished them with tomatoes and topped it all with more cheese. I have to say I’d make that as a side dish anytime. That was tasty:). So, I’m 3 weeks in. Energy levels are up and seemingly increasing. ... View Post
