Day Five-Carb Cycling-My Favorite Buttery Toast With Fried Egg-


By the time it's been toasted
& buttered, with a fried egg on top...
"Yum!"
I should get my greenhouse today. So I have got to clear the area I want to put it. Which means moving the planks & digging up plants. Hopefully the plants can stay put, as they be under the shelves. I can't wait to fill it with plants...

I had the urge for some carbs. I listened to that urge. After all. I should listen to my body. Luckily. I had enough saved carbs to add on to my carb allowance. So I had a slice of toast with butter & a fried egg. My favorite. Yummy!

Diet still intact. I enjoyed every mouthful of my buttery toast. If I had deprived myself of that, I would have ended up binging on high carb food. Instead I was 'In control'. I am going to get some gluten free bread. 1 slice is 12.7g. 1 slice of thick white bread was 21.6g {I think}

When I fancy potatoe. 100g microwaved = 21.7g carbs. I can add butter & cheese. A low carb diet is not just 20g net carbs. It is between 20g & 100g. So technically. I could count 50g net carbs & get plenty of food. After all. I seem to have slowed down my weight loss effect when low carb dieting...

As much as I want to lose as much weight as I can, as fast as possible. Losing weight slowly is easier, healthier, more likely to stay off...&...No obscene loose skin...

By saving carbs, then adding them to my daily carb allowance, I am 'carb cycling'. Today is a high day, but not a high day, because I am still below 50g...
