She just checked in her waist measurement which is 61.5" to start and now 58.5. That's basically 5'. I used to work with a guy in construction who would randomly sing "There's Miss 5x5... she's as tall...as she is wide...she's Miss 5 by 5...." While that's a 3" loss and commendable, I didn't think she literally has a 5' waist.
Breakfast is 3 eggs with processed food cheese product. For someone who is all into being against preservatives and processed food, she openly acknowledges she uses processed food cheese products not just in her eggs, but in that fucking two beef patty monstrosity last week. Use cheddar...FFS.
She again eats Take out food for lunch in the form of a salad, and with restaurant ranch which usually has carbs, making it every day since last Saturday she's had take out food. Last night she said she doesn't crave or like desserts or sweets, but hey, even though I just ate my lunch, I decided ot eat more because mom made some keto fudge but after the salad 'had a craving for something sweet" and seems her french nail manicure has been destroyed.
She's not going to track macros to start. Bitch.. it's a 30 day trial.. you should be tracking everything.... but again, Chantal is going full blown 'half ass' and her addiction keeps talking her out of every step of progress her doctors have given the tools to provide. She claims not to get discouraged or overwhelmed but yet if new to keto it's important to know what works for you, what doesn't, what the ingredients are which she's too lazy to know and says "It's probably on Pinterest". She says a few seconds later the link to the recipe will be in the description. It's not.
Now she's in the car with Mom and Buster the dog in the passenger seat. Buster still looks at her with a 'fuck you" look and mostly ignores her. CHantal doesn't even try to pet the dog which probably would cower from anyway.
Area they drive by is pretty, I must admit. Mom knows some nice areas. And that's where Chantal decides at a park Mom decided to stop at to try the swings and she's uncertain the weight limit... "feels pretty sturdy.... is it going to break?"
Mom has a blood sugar tester and her reading is 7.3 and she blames it on eggs. And a beefstick. Um, the whole point of keto is to keep blood sugar stabilized as the carbs are low. She also doesn't know what that information means. She hopes to lower her blood sugar. Again, she's not doing this with doctor approval, more like doctor reluctance to give in because she is going to do her own thing.
She bought more keto things, so she's in one week defied the no restrictive eating, no take out, no eating in car, and now back to buying food on compulsive purchases. She got pork rinds, ground up almonds which is considered almond flour. (No, it's not). She's going to use monk fruit cheese cakes because she craves sweets, and keto snacks and keto desserts. Mind you again, she said she doesn't like sweets so again Chantal lies. ANd things may change from day to day, again defying the professional advice of eating routinely.
She found Konjac spaghetti... already subsituting carb food with replacements which is always a bad idea. When doing keto not smart unless you've done it a while. This is Chantal repeating her tofu or plant based fake pretend meats in her repeated pattern of failure. Also, if these are shiratake noodles they taste like shit - and require a lot of preparation and Chantal doesn't like to cook and too lazy to do any prep work for meals. SHe loves food...as in eating it; everything else is guiuuuuuussse that's too hard, ya know what I mean? No Chantal. We do not. She also can't do basic math. 12 minus 7 is not 4.
Her dinner of a meat patty, aioli, pickles, and raw crudites seems okay and it seems her Mom is on keto and understands the eating style far better than she does. But mom isn't going to be making her meals for the next 3 to 4 weeks...
