I didn't take temp or blood sugar this morning. I got up early and have been working since then. (It's 11:20am now). I'm not really hungry yet, so I am going to try to delay eating for a while. I seem to do better when I have more calories available to eat in the evening, as that's always my hard time of day to get through.
Breakfast (it's 12:45pm): cup coffee with 1.66 fl. oz. heavy cream and 11 drops EZSweetz liquid splenda
Lunch (it's 4:05pm): 11.04oz raw broccoli, 2.01 oz cooked bacon, 30 g mayo, vinegar and 6 drops EZSweetz and pepper (Broccoli bacon salad)
Hunger before eating 8/10. Satiety after eating 7/10.
Dinner (it's 6:30pm): 2 cups Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze Almond Milk with 10 drops vanilla extract and 8 drops EZSweetz liquid splenda, 0.95 oz cooked bacon
Hunger before eating 7/10. Satiety after eating 8/10.

Protein seems a little low today, but yesterday was a pretty high protein day, so I suppose it averages out. The Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze is pretty filling. I think I will continue to get it. I hope the nutrition label is correct. It sure seems more caloric-ally dense than listed on the nutrition label. I will just have to monitor my weight loss while using it, I guess.
Today was a busy day of working. I feel good emotionally and hopeful about my diet. My stomach seems to maybe have shrunken a little, so I am having an easier time at 1000 calories. (Or maybe I am in ketosis now and that is making it easier for my body to access my body fat stores). Either way, it doesn't seem as hard as it did a few days ago. I still have to consciously restrict my eating, but I do not seem to be suffering the hunger pains that I have in the past while eating higher carb 1000 calories per day. I will continue to log and monitor how I feel.
