Today I lived through Day 14 but had a scare and it's my own fault
So posting for others who are starting so they can take care.
The rules of induction state DO NOT go for prolonged period of waking hours without eating. (I think it's 4 I don't have the book right now)
I had to work alot today (thank you whoever writes computer WORMS) but anyway I had a 2 egg cheese omelete for breakfast at 6:30am. Then got sucked into work and started to get dizzy around 3PM and I was pretty sure I was close to fainting, and I was starting to get twitches.
I barely could drive myself to get food, I was unprepared, even after I ate what I normally would eat I was still feelnig sick. I went to the doctor and my blood sugar was 75 AFTER A MEAL !! which means pre-meal GOD KNOWS how low it could have been.
They gave me some cube sweet thingies they give people with Hypoglycemia and I got up in the upper 80s within about an hour and I went home.
The doctor reminded me that while on a Ketogenic diet our glycogen levels are very low so skipping meals and waiting too long to eat is a big NO NO.
Be careful don't learn the hard way it's no Joke.
My doctor knows I am pre-diabetic for Type 2 so he supports the Low Carb Lifestyle for my obesity and to stave off Type 2. Just FYI for any obese type 2 folks who read this. It's helping me alot I have not had a HIGH sugar reading since I've started.
Take care and God Bless !!
