30 DAYS OF KETO DAY 22 DOING IT WRONG?
2019-07-31 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 16 min
Day 22 of a 30-day keto challenge. Chantal recounts an unexpectedly poor weigh-in (reported 370 lb the previous night), discusses mistakenly buying glucose test strips and a fasting blood-glucose result (~6.0 mmol/L), shows a weekly pill organizer for her warfarin dosing, and reflects on diet mistakes (too much fatty/processed meat, high sodium, too much dairy). She reports severe constipation, describes trying chocolate laxative and a fiber supplement, and plans to lower fat and sodium, incorporate more vegetables and some fruit, and try a cleaner keto or very low-carb approach. She also mentions medication, irregular periods, an upcoming hysterectomy as a possible benefit for hormonal issues, and general discouragement but renewed determination to adjust her plan.
