I purchased the book, Ketoactive, and I was very disappointed, to say the least. I didn't expect it to be as fanatical as it was, and it discouraged me somewhat. This woman gargles with coconut oil!!!!!! My God! She also cuts out all dairy, and takes a gazillion supplements each day.
There are things I simply will not do, and those are two of them! So... I will continue to search the literature and come up with something that is suitable for ME... something I can live with. After all, I am hoping that this is the absolute last time I have to go through this.
For breakfast, I had nothing, as I wasnt hungry. For lunch, I treated myself to sashimi... I had 10 pieces of raw samon and tuna, with some fish eggs, and a bit of mayo.
For snacks, I had almonds, and I finished off my devilled eggs. I swear, I wasnt hungry, which is a good thing. I continue to have my coffee with cream, and my water. Still having trouble remembering to drink.
Later in the evening, I went out to the M for a bit of R and R. I had it in my mind that I was only going to drink diet pepsi. And that went well until a certain friend showed up... this very generous friend of mine does not take NO for an answer, and seems to have this need to buy everyone drinks for the time he is there. Despite the fact that I told him I was only drinking diet coke, a glass of white wine was put in front of me. I didnt have the strength to leave it... I cannot stand the look of disappointment on his face. A cop-out? Some may say so, but I dont think so. I have no alcholic tendencies, and could easily take it or leave it. But disappointing people who are going out of their way to be kind? Thats a different story. So, I drank the damn wine. I found that by the time I got home, I was ravenous!!! So, I had 3 pieces of deli ham (organic, if you can believe), with some goat cheese. Again, I apologize to my Jewish family and friends:) But a gal has to do what a gal has to do.
Incidentally, I weighed myself in the am, and I was down 2 pounds:)
About Me
- Cyd
- Since 1988, the Silverstein Ranch has been occupied by owners Jeff and Cyd Silverstein. In 1988, first ranch-hand Harlyn Jacob came on board. In 1992, the family decided to recruit Sadie Beth, and a few years later, Levy, our Golden Retriever made his way into our lives and our hearts. Although Amanda doesnt live at the Ranch... she and Peter (Harder) are busy cultivating their own brood. Mandy, as we have always called her, and Peter have blessed us with Zach (age 7), Faith (age 5), Ian (age 2), and one 'en route'. Mandy et al come to visit us about once a month. They live in Altona, which is about an hour out of town. So... there you have it. I thought it would be good to have a little space to call our own.. where we could share our lives with the people who care to read about us. So... welcome. Relax, take yer shoes off.. and 'set a spell' :)
