Day Four: bingeing on carbs

Wt: 163.6, Ketosis somewhere between moderate and large.

Today was first day of regular weight loss diet, or adding fruits and vegetables to protein. And ACK - have already eaten 77g of carbs today, and have not had dinner yet. Total for yesterday was only 12! Wonder if body is screaming and dragging under weight of all the extra sugars; feeling really sleepy now. The killers were breakfast cereal (25g carbs) and the entire Atkins Caramel Double Chocolate Crunch bar I had for afternoon snack (22g). A lot of the carb in the Atkins bar is supposedly fiber, but the daily carb total still goes up to an alarming number.

But, the watermelon was delicious (1/2 cup diced, 8g carbs). As was, strangely, the unpleasantly dry little Atkins bar that is the main culprit. Funny because an hour before lunch I was thinking I would come here and write that the diet really isn't that hard, and then I came home and realized I was ravenous from missing morning snack (interview for volunteer job on Cambridge Climate Change planning committee). Promptly pigged out on snack and first full lunch (fruit, veg, protein, lettuce), then couldn't stop myself and had to eat entire nasty Atkins bar (officially afternoon snack).
