The alarms were set for five and six. I prefer two hours between the alarms. Went to bed too late to try for a four alarm though, and the delivery may be as early as seven. I didn't want to be just waking up when that arrives. Limited choices.
I woke up at 4:35 or so. Realizing I wouldn't wake up by five, I turned that alarm off. But, slowly started waking anyway, making it awake by 5:35. Up, and out. Still a bit of a sleepy head, but... awake and going. Sassy got fresh water, and food, right off the bat. I have water heating, for coffee. And some water going down, along with medicines, as the water heats.
It is 53 outside, but just to 70/69 downstairs. Staying 79/80 upstairs. Still, I slept well, even at 84 up there, 86 maybe? Meh. When we were young, in Iowa, it was like this temp, only higher humidity. Here, really, if not bone dry, it's right next door most of the time. Much... easier to handle, if still a bit of a challenge.

Blood sugar is good(er) again, at 110 fasting. When the fasting number is the lowest number, life is better. Especially as it nears one hundred or goes lower. The bend is usually below one fifty. But, with going off not just carnivore, but keto whole, lately, from time to time, it has been challenging and not tracking as it would normally.
Still, it was within the plans, mostly. I am now, finally, back on carnivore. Ugh, save for the other day. On work days, it is difficult to work and cook, especially when travel is also involved. Now, it didn't bug my blood sugar out. But it had to have thrown me out of ketosis. So... that's... a bad thing.
I don't seem to be losing any more weight. I may simply still be eating too much, or too many calories. I need to be much more careful about how much cream I am consuming. Steak isn't an issue, eating only half a thick cut steak a day. It's about as much as I can eat. Though... eating out is a terrible temptation. That "food" is bad for you, but is made to be addictive. You do realize that, right? From potato chips to McDonalds, it's nutrition is questionable, additives are toxic, design of the "food" is to create ill health, and such. Seriously.
When everything is financialized, everything is weaponized.

Cool, this morning. Well, down here. Even at 70, considering it is 80 upstairs. And even that had started to feel cool. Wonderful though, to sit here and chill, pretty much literally. Though, perhaps a jacket? Too funny. Now just about to read blogs, check email, see about the news I have more faith regarding, and waiting for the delivery. Excitedly.
Hmm, I have soap, and jet-dry, for it. Let me find those. Then have coffee, and the other half of the steak. Later.
Had the last 6oz bison sirloin yesterday, so good, touch too much garlic powder. LBL.
ReplyDeleteAbout 6 hrs later sweats hit hard. House upstairs ac set84, down 82, wifes room (her control, but I've always seen around 82) my room was 77after sweats dropped it to 76. Soaked now chilled. Had to change sheets shirt and shorts. Pulled the mattress pad. Thought about flipping the mattress to the "dry" side. 2 hrs before alarm, Not much sleep after. Getting ready for work the nausea hits...perfect... Drank a can of bitters and soda water...(like no ass I could imagine tasting) yuck, but not a dealbreaker. It held the gagging at bay, Not "cured" for several hours, just "you won't get worse" a win of sorts. Still couldn't eat, just sipped on chai Tea no additives.
Had a couple sweat& chills at work (unusual lately). Cleared end of shift.
Just finished that last legacy breed pork chop, this was frozen (by me) to keep longer, we'll see what happens histamine wise. I'd forgotten it sitting on top of the "halibut??" still haven't braved the fish again (ok a can of kippers)
"Stay on Target!" Rambling... Will go now.
Have you always kept it warmer? I don't know how you could handle that, especially being a drinker? And in higher humidity, you said? I am, finally, again, beginning to handle heat. Sleeping right through 84... if hot wind started coming in, and a bit humid. Which disturbed my sleep, if just a bit.
ReplyDeleteAlways space here, for blather, rambling, ranting, and such. Whispered, or otherwise.
Last year, if I had tried to sleep in that, I would have become terribly sick. I used the ac to keep it at 73. But, until I could get used to that, even that was too hot.
I used to go through night sweats... two to three times a week. But not for temp reasons. A little help, and that improved. Now it is once a month to every few months.
Yours is toxins, coming out? And... getting used to fats? Or is it still from sobering? A bit of several things? It's tough when doing the right thing drives you near into the dirt.
Yes, not a dealbreaker. I don't know about you, but that ass taste is very short lived. I always, then, suck on my fatted coffee. Not sure it really helps, but in my mind, it does. That tastes goes fast. The alcohol based one I have tastes better, but throws me off keto... which... is the only reason I would bother with that stuff to start. Ugh.
