Day 48, Cold, tired and cravings, just hanging on

We actually didn't go to bed to late last night and in the quite country house I slept well but I new what was coming.

Glucose:   4.6
Ketone:     0.2

Breakfast: Water
Snack:       Cashews
Lunch:       Roast lamb, broccoli, fennel
Dinner:      Prawn and avocado cocktail, lettuce, pork scratching

In an attempt to regain some ketones I abstained from breakfast and Simon and I took their dog for a walk. It was bitterly cold out and as I said with the lack of correct fuel I have been struggling to stay warm.
Back to their house for a really great roast lamb and shortly after I found my self nodding of at the table. I rudely went up stairs for 20 minute nap before the drive back to London.

From a dietary and feeling energised perspective the last few days have been incredibly difficult. I have really been craving beer, chocolate, cake, well everything. I know this has been due to a combination of eating sweetener chocolate, having coffee, drinking alcohol, being tired and not eating enough of the correct food. I need to get back on track quickly, where I was feeling good, energised and not needing to use will power, unfortunate Lucy and I are out for dinner tomorrow night so I will have to stay strong again.

I can honestly say if I had not been writing my blog I would have broken my goal and eaten carbs this weekend.
