Yesterday:
~Mocha Latte Shake - 5g carbs
~2 Sticks of string cheese - 2g carbs
~Cashews - 12g carbs
~Eggs with basil cream sauce - 5g carbs
~Sugar Free Jello - 0g carbs
Wow, I pretty much at the same thing yesterday as I did the day before. I have discovered that eggs are amazing. I mean, I knew they were awesome already, but dang! The last 2 nights I have eaten 4 eggs (without the yolk) with cream sauce. I will eat around 6pm and won't get hungry the rest of the night. I will usually munch on Jello throughout the night, but that is pretty much like drinking water...there is nothing in it. Not only that, but I have energy to work out for about 40 minutes or longer. I am so amazed with how this diet is going. I wish I knew exactly why it is amazing this time around. Seeing carbs and not being able to eat them is the worst part. My gut is still telling me it's the D3 and other vitamins. Going off of Prozac has probably helped too. I think I need start eating more veggies...eww. Maybe I can eat some if I smother them in cheese. Cheese makes everything better, just like butter.
I got the rest of my blood test results back (I was tested back in February). I was thinking it was only a test for B vitamins, but apparently not. I had to pay $170 as a copay for the test, so I was wondering why it was so expensive. Now I see, and I don't regret it at all. They tested all of my vitamins. Surprisingly, I wasn't deficient in anything but B1 and D3. Specifically, I was tested for:
~B Complex Vitamins
~Amino Acids
~Metabolites
~Fatty Acids
~Other Vitamins
~Minerals
~Carbohydrate Metabolism
~Antioxidants
There were a few levels that were normal, but a little low. The lab results packet came with suggestions as to how I can raise those levels. That being said, I'm going to start taking a few other supplements for a little while. Now, my regimen will be:
~My awesome multivitamin- Nature Made Multi For Her Multivitamin
~B1 supplement - 100mg
~Magnesium - 500mg
~D3 - 5,000 IU
~CoQ10 - 100mg
~Acai extract - 500mg
I just ordered a bunch of stuff from swansonvitamins.com. My mother-in-law uses them and loves them. So I will give it a try. Apparently I saved $99 by purchasing through them. Yeah!
