Great OP day yesterday. I scrapped off a thick layer of ice off my car this morning and just made it to work. I passed several cars that had slid off the road on the 15 mile trek north. Now they are closing the plant and I get to do it all over again with even worse driving conditions. Fun, fun, fun.

Ken - that's frustrating. Hope you had a safe drive. I work at a post-secondary institution and they've never once (to my knowledge) cancelled school in the early morning like elementary and high schools do - they close the school in the middle of the afternoon, after almost everyone's already gotten there, and now 10,000 people are trying to leave at the same time. It's the dumbest thing.

OP Day. The icy roads cleared up enough for me to get a walk in late in the day. My daily 10K step streak for the month is still alive. The scale budged a bit in the right direction. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come.

No snacking again. IFing has cut it out completely. So... just plodding along.

I took a mulligan on the strength training again. Besides being tired, I had a bad day at work and I was super anxious to the point of chest tightness. A good workout might have done me some good, but I said "eff it." I'll make up for it today. (I feel better already about the work situation. I 'vented' to DH, I'm off next week, and I'm going to arrange a meeting with the big boss about it.)

1g carbs yesterday and no HWC in my coffee since I decided to just stop drinking coffee I've done it before, I can do it again. It was easier to not have coffee vs. having it without HWC. I think I will have some decaf this morning to stave off the caffeine headache I can feel coming on, but I will continue to ween off of it. Come Monday I should need zero coffee. I want to get to the point where I'm just drinking water.

Carb habit days successful: 62/90 (started 12/10/20, ends 03/09/21)
No HWC in my coffee: 15/90 (Started 01/29/21, ends 04/29/21)

Good stuff Froka. I've been doing Americano coffee (espresso and water) at home and dailing back the amount of coffee in it. Also drink from yeti and can't "see" how black it is so not missing as much. Almost like hot water with flavor. On the other hand I"ve been slamming down Rockstars left and right and ignoring my NAS on this practice period ha! I'm a hypocrite have a great weekend

I was worried I was going to have to give myself a 'fail' on protein yesterday, because we decided to get pizza. I got the keto crust. I assumed it was all coconut flour and flax, but I just looked up the ingredients and nutrition facts on the website, and I forgot that it's also made with a ton of egg whites. Goal achieved. No wonder I barely finished 3 (medium) slices in a 5-hour period.

Thud, they say you are what you eat, so I think Rockstars are appropriate for you.
