TRY AGAIN

 So the last attempt was a total fail.

I'm really unwell. No energy. Weight gain. Swollen fingers. Mild to strong nausea most of the time. Occasional bouts of giddiness. Some possibly caused by middle ear blockage. short of breath dothing nothing.

Doesn't look good when written down.

Today...Step 1. Drinking my own filter coffee. Started day with keto style.

Will see how that goes. Still debating bread but really should go cold turkey on that too.

have a new app called Keto Cycle. Not sure whether I like it. Will think on it but maybe Carb Manager is still better.

That's it for now.

KETO RESTART

 D-DAY IS MONDAY. JANUARY 24TH

I'm using Diet Doctor restart guidelines with modifications to suit my lifestyle and food preferences. I'm calculating on Carb Manager and also doing Noom for inspiration and psychological support. I'm wearing a Fitbit, not the most up-to-date but basically I only want to record steps and sleep. 

Last year I did well, losing about 8 kg but am now back to my starting weight. Yo-Yo Dieting is not healthy. I did get kind of burnt out when I tried to develop a lifestyle routine that was too rigid for me. I must stick to Simple. 

Covid 19 will continue to be a factor this year. I really don't want to socialise much. Except, I have applied to go to a Father Heart Reunion in May. This will demand a level of fitness I do not have at present. I'm struggling with mask wearing as I find it hard to breath if I get warm or exercise. In the meantime I will mostly keep to family with a few shopping outings including Hair and Beauty appointments. I need to save another $3000 so will have to do more of my own housework, shop carefully and improve my health and fitness as much as I can.

Here Goes.
