A Most Resounding Answer

Tuesday, February 20, 2024

If the question was "will 1C of mashed potatoes, 35g carbs according to the internet, on day 1 of a reset prevent mass outflow of water?", the answer is a resounding:

LOL NO.

Good grief.  It didn't really kick in until overnight but I had to get up multiple times.  Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about it, but it did make for a lot of interruption.  Many pounds of liquid departed.

Also notable that even after just one day I feel a bit better.  Not a huge difference but still, notable.

I was also very pleasantly sated by dinner last night, it just took a long while to kick in.  Good thing I didn't have anything snackable handy or I would have kept eating.   The urge to eat remains insanely strong, I just have to be tough enough to outlast it.

Breakfast:  CF sausage patties, coffee

Again.  Happily the coffee didn't dry me out today.

Lunch:  Soup, sliced cheddar

Again.

Dinner:  Leftover CF ribeye steak, mashed potatoes, 12 oz All Day IPA, plain True Goodness greek yogurt

Cooked the steak last night and sliced it.  Seems sad to "waste" a ribeye on a reheat, but it's what I had on hand and it still tasted great.

Exercise:  Nope.  Decided not to push it this morning.  Still sleep deprived.

Day totals:   $0.00 spent, OK on carbs with the looser total, success
