Two weeks in and I’ve lost another 4 pounds. That’s 10 pounds in total! I feel better for it and my jeans fit better.
However, I think one of the biggest triumphs is my resting heart rate. I always have a high heart rate, it’s part of EDS, a comorbidity called Dysautomonia. It also comes with the inability to control my temperature, among other issues. My average resting heart rate is usually 100-103 bpm. Now, at two weeks in to the ketogenic diet, it’s as low as 88bpm. So it’s the upper end of normal but it’s actually classed as NORMAL!
I’ve had some really nice food this week, Luke really is quite a chef.
Baked egg in bacon.
Haddock and kale in a cheese sauce with roasted broccoli.
Peanut butter open sandwich with avocado.
Beef burgers, kale cooked in butter and crispy halloumi fries.
There has been more lush meals but I tend to get too excited and eat them before remembering to take a photo 🤦🏻♀️.
The weekly weight loss is a big motivation as well as seeing improvements in my health. Having a boyfriend that has culinary imagination and ability also helps!
