April

Today was one of the hardest days so far. I went in for blood work at my doctor’s office this morning, so I fasted the night before. I also worked a 12-hour shift, so my need for food was greater than normal. Today was also donut day for breakfast, and pizza night for dinner, with a bonus of a waffle fries station. The keto gods were testing me — the temptation intense!

I managed to make it through the day, sticking to the diet.

When I got home, I had hotpot for dinner, which was fine, but still had those lingering cravings, so I went to Sprouts and bought my favorite natural peanut butter and celery as a treat to myself. After a 10 days of no sugar, you can taste a subtle, natural sweetness from the peanuts in every bite. Something as simple as celery and peanut butter has never been so heavenly! Craving satisfied, crisis averted. I hope I can continue to stay strong, and keep this up.

Only 14 more days to go.
