Figuring Things Out...

I know it is still a month away just about, but I am trying to figure out plans for January and getting back on track with food/diet.
I know that I will be eating low carb again, just not sure if I am going to do normal low carb, Keto, a "challenge" where I do some days lower fat/higher protein and other days being regular keto, or even a plan where I eat just beef, butter, bacon and eggs for a month. Lots of different options. Maybe I will just do the beef butter bacon and eggs for a week and then regular keto for a bit.
I also will get back to working out in January, maybe sooner but no promises on that.
I have been drinking quite a bit of water, I've just been liking ice cold water lately. Usually around 2 liters a day (72 oz)
Just thought I would share for anyone who was wondering where my food/health posts were. They'll return in January....just still figuring out the plan exactly.

@LindaOHio I did it back in like 2019 and got my A1c down to 5.6. Being at 11.8 now is horrible though

Right now the beef , butter, bacon, eggs things sounds grand, but ... I can imagine that it may be a challenge to stick to. You can do it though!

@MommyOfEli2013 I feel you. I go through cravings for eggs, bacon has never been a fave, and while it takes a lot for me to get tired of beef, too much of anything gets tiresome...

@FayeHazel Yup, exactly lol! That is pretty much how I feel lol. I like eggs a certain way, but some ways I can't eat them (usually scrambled or omelets I get sick just thinking of them). Bacon is alright if it is cooked right lol. But beef, only so much can be done with it when you are eating low carb.

Might just not be the easiest because I am not the biggest fan of eggs or bacon and I get tired of beef haha. But thank you

Yes, that is true...I have almost a month. I need to stick with whatever if I want to live a longer life (not that I want to live to be too old lol). But thank you

Good luck in your endeavors the earlier you plan these things the better as long as you don’t forget about them come January!
Have you tried intermittent fasting to pair up with your low carb-keto diet?

@MommyOfEli2013 no it isn’t. I always find it hard to do at first then find it easier when I get used to it.
But when I slip it is hard to go back to it again! Lol

i would consider looking at what you like to eat, and figuring out a way to eat what you like, just less of it!

What I like would be too high in carb, even if I ate less. Plus, I don't do self control well...so I need to just cut out the carbs
