I feel like I&#8217;m getting a pretty good handle on &#8220;eating while at event.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This month I had three incidents of &#8220;cheating&#8221;\/overeating. I made Keto Lasagna and &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/alldayidreamaboutfood.com\/low-carb-death-by-chocolate-cheesecake\/\" class=\"broken_link\">Death by Chocolate Cheesecake<\/a>&#8221; as a late birthday celebration on 7\/14 and ate WAY too much (the cheesecake was super good. The Lasagna was okay). I also had some breaded chicken and a bit of ice cream at Leatherby&#8217;s on 7\/23, Lastly on 7\/25 I craved ALL THE CARBS and ate some cookies and cornbread which had been left at our house from our pool party. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m starting to see a trend of craving ALL THE CARBS right at the end of the month when I&#8217;m just about to get a visit from Aunt Flo. I&#8217;ll need to watch that. Not sure what I can do to head that off. I might just add some sweet fat bombs around that time.<\/p>\n<p>The last time I was this weight was July of 2011, 6 years ago. This was just after the last time I lost a bunch of weight..but before the stress of short-selling our house and then moving, and then moving again.<\/p>\n<p>This month I lost 1 inch off my waist, 2.75 inches off my hips, and 2.25 inches off my upper thigh. Luckily I have a variety of &#8220;slightly too small&#8221; jeans to choose from. I&#8217;m just a bit miffed that I won&#8217;t be able to wear my newly purchased jeans anymore.<\/p>\n<p>When I started on #keto I had an appointment with my Doctor to discuss the diet and to get her blessing on this. She referred to it as the &#8220;starvation diet&#8221;. More correctly I think it&#8217;s the &#8220;Autophagy Diet&#8221; (self-cannibalization diet). Anyway we did a blood test and she set it up so I could do another blood test every 3 months. Yesterday I took the second blood test. My Hemoglobin A1C went from 5.6% (which is what I&#8217;ve been at since 2012) to 5.3%. A1C between 5.7 and 6.4 percent is considered pre-diabetes. Over 7% is considered diabetic. Go me.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<Td><figure id=\"attachment_250\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-250\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.resultstypical.com\/files\/2017\/12\/feb022017-e1512160448665-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/resultstypical\/files\/2017\/12\/feb022017-e1512160448665-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/resultstypical\/files\/2017\/12\/feb022017-e1512160448665-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/resultstypical\/files\/2017\/12\/feb022017-e1512160448665.jpg 621w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-250\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Start<br \/>Feb. 2, 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<td><figure id=\"attachment_267\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-267\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.resultstypical.com\/files\/2017\/08\/july_selfie-e1512163125975-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/resultstypical\/files\/2017\/08\/july_selfie-e1512163125975-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/resultstypical\/files\/2017\/08\/july_selfie-e1512163125975-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/resultstypical\/files\/2017\/08\/july_selfie-e1512163125975.jpg 547w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-267\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Now<br \/>July 22, 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July Month 5 on #keto (low carb, high fat) Down 44.5 lbs (10.6 lbs this month).
