QUILTING

 After a quiet start to the week it became quite busy. Jane took me to Quizz at the Club on Wednesday night. I had a naked burger and cappuccino. We didn't do so well at Quizz as the previous week, when I stayed home with 'Keto Flu,' when the team won and so paid for my burger.

Thursday Judy and I went shopping and had lunch at Espy. I was pretty tired when we got home. The tiredness lasted into Friday so I didn't get anything productive done.

Saturday Judy and I spent all day at quilting.... 9.30am-3.30pm. Again I was a bit tired and was alone for dinner I didn't feel like eating.

Sunday was a slow day and unfortunately I was hungry all day. Not funny.

Monday worked away on the pincushion for Judy until all I need to do is stitch on the sole for the slipper and stuff it. I want to finish it in time to give her sometime on today. Jane made some paleo bread from a mix she'd bought at New World. I managed to be reasonably controlled in spite of it being very yummy. I must get the mix for Amanda and I to make in her fancy mixer. I will need to be careful as it must be high in carbs but safer for me than wheat bread.

Jen and Neill bought fish and chips to share dinner with us. We picnicked at Simpsons Beach. It was a bit windy but still lovely to be there with family. I ate one piece of battered fish and  a few chips. It was OK but not really a big fan so easy to stay moderate.

I ate quite a few higher carb foods than normal during the week. It's not always easy when socialising and there's been plenty of that this week. It means I've not lost any weight in spite of being in ketosis each time I measured.

I'm sad to be going home in a few days. It's hard to leave when I haven't caught up with most people I wanted to see. On the other hand it's much simpler to get into a good routine at home. I'm half way through the Keto Challenge which is really intended to be a re-boot for me. I think I hoped to lose somewhere between 8-10 kg. So far I've lost about 4 kg so the next weeks at home will be interesting on that front.

 I'm going to set up next week's menu page then finish the pincushion while watching When The Heart Calls.
