First Check up with Nutritionist

On Thursday, April 1st (Day 30), I had my four week check up with a nutritionist. My official weigh in was 398, for a 4 week loss of 35 lbs. After asking about my ketosis (consistently large, not unlike myself), and seeing my weight, she promptly informed me that I was "doing awesome."

I asked about nutrasweet, which is technically restricted on my diet, but she assured me that I was doing fine and I could keep drinking my beloved diet soda. More importantly, she stated an actual carb count goal number for me: under 40grams a day. That's not a lot, but when all starchy foods are eliminated, it's actually pretty easy.

A big new development of this is that certain processed foods, like ham and bacon, are now allowed as long as I keep it low key. Check fat counts, check carb counts, and be reasonable, but I can have two of my favorite meats.

One of the most exciting parts of this is that I should keep losing weight at a pretty fast clip for the duration. It won't be 9lbs a week, but it'll be pretty quick.
