Keto Day 44, and BFC check-in

Good morning!

Here's yesterday:

Breakfast- BPC, 1 cheddar keto waffle topped with 2 fried eggs

Lunch- 1 slice keto pumpkin bread with 1/2 tbsp butter, 2 slices deli ham smeared with 1/2 tsp each mustard and rolled up with 1 slice each cheddar, 10 green olives, 1/2 c cucumbers in vinegar

Dinner- Keto-fied Shepherd's Pie, 1/2 c roasted asparagus with a garlic cream sauce

Water count- 155.2 fl oz

Step count- 6,271

So my first full day of fitbit-ing went really well. I met my goal of 5,000 steps easily. I will likely go another week with that as my goal before adjusting upwards; the last thing I want to do is set my goal too high for my circumstances and be discouraged when it's unreachable. I'm really happy with the device and the app so far. The funniest part was when I hit my daily step goal. I felt a buzzing on my wrist, pushed the button on the device, and was rewarded with a big flashing "5000" like if won a prize on a game show or something, which made me laugh heartily. It also sent me an email congratulating me on making my goal for the day. Overall, silly as it seems, that kind of thing is extremely encouraging. 

I also like that I can connect with friends and family, and I've already got a goodly number of contacts. Being able to see how much my husband, for example, is walking every day makes movement kind of fun by turning it into a little friendly competition. I've got a long way to go to beat hubby, though. The man walks 5-7 miles at work every day, and that kind of movement is inherent in his particular profession so it's going to be quite the challenge considering that a good two hours of my day requires me to sit down with the kids and teach. I'll have to pick it up elsewhere, I guess.

Anyway, I must be off to have a go on ye olde exercise bike. Later I will try to post pics and the recipe for my dinner last night. I basically took my mom's old recipe for shepherd's pie and changed and some ingredients to make it keto-friendly, and it turned out great!

Until later, KOKO, my babies!
