Defragmented

So internet seems to be working a bit better now :)

About a month ago I started a low-carb bootcamp with a trainer at my gym. I'm her guinea pig, so to say and am journalling (sometimes well, other not at all) about my experience with this program. The purpose of this program (geared very individually) is to retrain my body to use carbohydrates properly. I was eating carbs (not that much in my opinion, but too many) however my body was not utilizing the carbohydrates appropriately during workouts.

The first 2 weeks were quite difficult but I made it. I was eating meat and greens for all meals, along with nuts. I had a cheat meal, added berries for breakfast, things were going well. After 4 more days I got another cheat meal, added sweet potato for dinner. The cycle continued 4 more days than I was able to add another carb every 5 days...
Everything was good until I got choice. I felt totally lost and was unable to stay on track. Oddly enough I felt better with being super strict. So very strange.
My weight did creep up a bit but all my measurements were still down. My trainer was not concerned with weight but she was concerned that I'm stressing out over food and the number on the scale. And this is just the reason why I'm working with her, to show others my struggles as opposed to a trainer saying this works.

We've readjusted. I'm back to meat and greens, berries for breakfast, meat and green for lunch and dinner and a healthy carb 1/2 hour after a workout. We will (I will) do this for 10 days to get me back on track.
So that is where I'm at today.

What I've learned. I don't think about food!!! I would go through my day thinking about what I would have for breakfast, what I would have for lunch, dinner....Thinking about what I would eat consumed my mind. With this eating regime I didn't do that and I never even noticed it until I was telling someone what I was doing. I don't ever remember not thinking about what my next meal would be, this is a HUGE benefit.
