Now that I'm on the real 20g of carbs per day, I think I really feel it. At the gym, I thought I'd die halfway through my workout. I got up at 6am instead of 5am to walk the dogs, and almost didn't make it out the door. I really know I'm doing it right this time.
I used to take some powdered amino acids with Stevia before my workouts and I even cut those out. Man, I sure felt the difference.
I'm HATING drinking just water. I tried Mio, but being only allowed 3 "servings" of Sucralose per days is a friggin joke. I actually measured out 6ml of Mio in a syringe and added it to 24 ounces of water as directed and it tasted like less than nothing. I tossed it and went back to straight water.
Everyone says I'll get used to the water. I know I will. I've done it before. It's just that the little bottles piss me off and the bigger bottles piss me off more. The 40 ounce cups from Subway that used to house my Diet Minute Maid were "just right", especially at the gym. If I fill them with water, though, the lids wear out after about 3 refills and then I have to sneak back into Subway for new lids. Even though they like me there, I can tell this just isn't going to work long term. I just don't feel right stealing 50 lids when no one is looking.
I'll figure it out. It's funny how these little habits and nuances become so ingrained in our daily lives. I think the folks over at Subway are actually worried about me because it's been 3 days since I've been in for my lemonade refills. Tomorrow, I'll go in and explain that I'm taking a break because of the carbs in their blessed lemonade. They'll understand and spread the word among the staff so no one puts out a missing persons report. :)
I might buy a different brand of ketone strips in case the batch I bought is bad. Wouldn't it suck if I was in ketosis all this time and just had a bad batch of strips and was killing myself for no reason? ROFL.

Great advice from everyone on both vessels for my drinks and ketosis. Thank you to all!

If you are active, the strips won't change color. And if you drink a lot of water, the strips will barely change color. If you are eating low carb, you're in ketosis. I really like your journal.

Add a teaspoon of Coconut Oil to your coffee/tea before you go to workout.
