One Week Into The Keto Diet

Dear Period. Today is the first day that I went off track. You know. Out with family and friends and someone ordered appetizers and there I was drinking whiskey and eating baked Brie-slathered bread. The kind you only really order out. You know the kind. After a while it dawned on me that I was wrecking my diet. What astonished me was that I hadn't even realized it. I had been so good for one week. Saying no thank you to desserts, eating meat for breakfast and almonds for snack and salads for lunch. Eating avocados and eggs. Eating coconut oil and pork rinds. No more bananas and no more potatoes and no more pasta. And there I was eating bread. A few hours later I can look back at this first time falling off the band-wagon and call it a carb-up, give my body some building blocks for the hormones I need so badly, and just enjoy some baked brie. XOXO Dani Ladies. How many of us are out there beating ourselves up about screwing up our diets? I have never tried seriously...

Off to the Races

Dear Period, I am coming for you! I am so so happy to share that I began the Keto Diet, as planned, on October 1st! I know it is only the 3rd, but my Ketones are registering at 1.0 for two days in a row, so I feel this is some small measure of success. If you are staying away for diet related reasons and I can get you back with the Keto Diet, I will. Here's to a year of giving my body what it needs to thrive and be fertile again! I am so delighted to be on this journey FINALLY! I'll be sharing my experiences as I find them here on the period blog, as well as other interesting POF related topics and research, so stay tuned! XOXO Dani
