Day 2 happy start

Waking after a good nights sleep, less restlessness and no night time visits from the girls, I had a mild headache but less than I have previously experienced. I am really pleased with my self at managing to fast yesterday, I eagerly test my blood.

Sugar 4.6

Ketone 1.7

What a good boost, fasting is powerful at kicking me into ketosis. I don't feel particularly hungry, I have some broth and my salts(Na,Mg,K) and to my surprise my headache cleared about 45mins later.

I head off to my parents for a family get together. I am thrust a glass of fizz, its hard to say no and I don't want my great start to be undone or give me false confidence. I sip it slowly, I am pretty sure this is not how the books recommend breaking a 33 hour fast but it tastes good. A few cocktail sausages later I avoid the cards at the lunch table. 

My headache did surface again early evening, so when I got home I had some more....yes broth and salts. (Most people think it is weird to drink broth but if you added some chicken and veg it would be soup and that would be fine, anyway it tastes like gravy, one of my favourite foods)

Off to see Ed for some "beers" let's see how that works out.
