Just kickin' back an enjoying the day. I had no appetite last night so I just snacked on nuts and drank my water. I have been using Keytone strips to monitor my ketoisis and the strips have all been dark purple. The darker the color, the more keytones I am producing.
During weight loss, the excess keytones are expelled from the body. I know that some say that monitoring keytones using the urine strips is like monitoring your diet by looking at what you throw away in the garbage, but I am too cheap to get the blood keytone strips. I also can't stand the finger prick required to get the blood sample. Sunday I gave blood and the worst part is the finger stick. Call me a wimp, but until I have a need for the accuracy, I'll use the after the fact strips.
Took the night off from exercising. I felt the need for recovery. I will hit it extra hard tonight. I usually go out to eat one night a week, but if I don't feel hungry, I will get some snacks to munch on.
Got my protein fix in this morning and I am planning on a salad for lunch. I wish that the place I am staying at was in a better play for walking. Even though it is colder out, I like to take a short walk in the evenings. Gives me something to do. This place is on the highway and it is dark by the time I am done with work. If I feel the need, I guess I could use the treadmill.
Well, that's it for today.
L8r,
Kenn
