Weight Loss Day Six

Date: May 7th 2009

I think sugar content is almost close to negligent values. I have a feeling that grape fruit, lime solution, phylum husk and lots of veggies (which is good) are adding carbs beyond the required 20 gms level.

Let us do a small math as per data from Atkins website:

1/2 medium grapfruit Grapefruit, white, raw: 9.9 gm carb.
I have eaten atleast one so that amounts to approximately 20gms.

Phylum husk: One teaspoon 6gm.
I have been adding more like 3 teaspoon. So thats like 18 gms.

The veggies must be contributing close to 15 gms. So my carb content is more then 50 gms. Way beyond the recommended value.

Weight measured: 156 lbs

Breakfast: 2 hard boiled eggs.

Lunch: 4 slices of grilled pompom, grilled Asparagus and artichoke, one grape fruit.

Dinner: 1 large grilled flounder, grilled squash, turnips and bell pepper.

Drinks: 12 glasses of water

Supplements: Psyllium husk.

Exercise:

Over all Feeling: Feeling light headed.
