Day 5 of a planned 5 day 'no solid food fast'
Blood sugar 91 mg/dL
🌟 Consuming 900 calories a day of 🥛 "Quest Vanilla Milkshake Protein Powder", heavy cream, and Splenda and exercising and lifting weights = crazy weigh loss! 👍
This fast is going so well I decided to extend it an extra day 😎
🧘🏾♂️ This current fast really has been a breeze. The proper dosing of "Hi-Lyte Electrolyte Concentrate" 2-3 times a day was the key to my electrolytes getting ‘out of balance’ that sometimes caused lethargy, dizziness, nausea, and constipation. Timing is important, Yesterday, I took it 'after' my lunchtime walk rather than 'before' (as I normally do), and found myself dozing off at my 5th meeting for the day a half hour later (it may have just been the meeting!). I took a few sips of 5 hour energy drink and was fine the rest of the day.
⌚ I normally stop fasting Friday night, but @PrincessValerie is all ‘Keto’ now so we no longer have our Friday Night Pizza 🍕. So I will continue the fast until Saturday when I plan to break the fast with a BBQ at my parents’ house 👩🏾🍳.
📅 I look forward to restarting the fast next week, but I will start it on Tuesday rather than Monday because @PrincessValerie and I plan to hit the town on Monday (but still eat Keto).
@PrincessValerie and I walked to the gym last night and I did:
[3 sets of each]
Bench Press - 70lbs (10 reps)
Deadlift – 100lbs (6 reps)
Squat - 110lbs (10 reps)
Ab Crunch - 120lbs (10 reps)
Pullups - (10 reps)
Shrug - 110lbs (10 reps)
Pushups - (10 reps)
🏋🏾♂️ This is my last weight level when I was 'bulking'. However, I did not have the energy to increase the weights (like I normally do when 'bulking'). I will do another ‘bulk’ after this current ‘cut’ and hit the carbs again and see how much higher in weights I can get.
Have a good day everyone!
