"The road to success there is never a crowd on the extra mile!”
Is your stomach (and brain) sending you mixed messages this week? You’re hungry all the time! You’re never hungry at all! You’re dying for sweets after dinner, even though you’re still full from your meal! These are all completely normal and expected...
Remember when we spoke about the possibility of hitting a slight rough patch as your body makes the switch between sugar burning and fat burning? If it's going to happen, you'll feel it in the next day or two, and it will pass by Day 7.
As much as “diet experts” tell you to listen to your body, until you’ve been eating Good Food for a while, you simply can’t always trust the messages your body is sending you. Right now, your hormones are still out of balance, your brain may still be craving, and your energy levels probably aren’t where they need to be. This keeps your hunger mechanism out of whack, which means you may need to override it for the time being.
If you’re always hungry, it’s okay to eat a little more, because all of the food you're eating is healthy! (as long as you’re not falling face-first into a jar of nut butter)
If you’re never hungry at all, try to make sure you still get in at least 2 meals a day. Your hunger will catch back up with you soon enough, but for now, make sure you’re well nourished, even if your body isn’t telling you to eat. I can never predict 100% who will get the "yuck" feeling and who won't, but my guess is that in your case, it will be lessened due to your having been on a pretty clean diet before keto. Normally it's the people addicted to junk food that have the worst time of it...
By the end of your first 30 days, your body will be speaking the truth like never before—and you’ll be able to listen to (and trust!) the signals it’s trying to send you. Which is a good thing, because your body knows better than anyone or anything what you need to keep you lean and healthy.
As promised: Zero Carb Asian Noodles!!! An insult to Italian heritage :) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/28/shirataki-noodle-recipes_n_1919696.html

Today's Accomplishment
*
What was the best thing that happened to me today? What was it that made you particularly proud, happy or grateful? Was there a moment of joy or accomplishment? Relive the feeling for an instant. We want more of those moments in our lives so let’s just think about something really positive and build on that. Too often we take good things for granted. We should enjoy them and be grateful. This question helps us to be positive, happy and appreciative.
