I’m a little bit of a lazy cook, so that’s why I bought pre-cooked or at least pre-seasoned meats for the most part. We ate the fresh salmon tonight with lime juice and lemon pepper for seasoning, served on a bed of riced cauliflower, along with salad (mixed greens; cucumber; mini peppers; vinaigrette).
One meal a day consists of a non-flavored protein powder shake, in which my fitness coach recommends I add fruit to in order to make it palatable. I think it ends up being 300+ calories and a ton of protein.
This week I’ve completely cut out sweetened foods except for the lower-sugar yogurt. Incredibly, I lost about 3 pounds this week (male, mid-30s, 5’11”, 185lbs to 182lbs) though I know some of this is probably water weight. I must be bordering on ketosis as I’ve been a little lethargic. After all, I was practically living on carbs before as many of you are familiar with. We do 30-minute HIIT classes 3 days per week.
My goal weight is somewhere around 160-165, which I weighed for years when I was more active and eating less. The highest I got to recently was around 189. The crazy part is how insidious the weight gain has been; it’s all been over the last 8 years. That’s only 3 pounds a year.
Any tips for low-carb diets?
