Wednesday is usually weigh-in and injection day for
Bernstein Diet, so yesterday I went to the clinic, although not officially on
diet, I got double injections, they checked my weight and the ketones in my
urine sample.
There were lots of people waiting, I
guess after a while you get use to the whole process, which might be annoying
eventually.
This is what I'll do for the next weeks – it takes about 15 minutes -
- Go early in the morning to the clinic (Mon, Wed, Fri only)
- Sign my ID/name on the sheet and wait for my name to be called
- Go on the scale for the weigh-in and wait again for my name to be called
- Follow the nurse for the injections and the ketones verification
Double injections hurt, seriously! But fortunately just for
few seconds, I'm wondering how would feel on my stomach or when I'll be losing fat
from my butt.
I went to do some other grocery shopping yesterday, I bought
lots of vegetarian products from Yves, as protein choice they have a lot, plus
they were on sale so I was happy for that. The only downside is that I'm not allowed to have those types of
processed protein more than twice a week so I might need to figure out what
else I could have.
My dinner was nice, I got some mushrooms and 230g (1 serving)
is a lot. It was the whole package! So I cooked the mushrooms in the microwave
with some oregano, salt, and parsley. After they were cooked I put everything
in a pan adding my half cup of white eggs to it…and a pinch of black pepper.
For me it was a normal meal, didn't feel at all in a food-restriction state.
After dinner I prepared something to bring in the office
today, I need to plan it in advance or I'd be late every morning. I'm still in
the process of understanding on how prepare my meals, the 4 food categories are
clear but – as additional food items – there are lots of garnishments, liquids
and seasoning choices for cooking so I will need to get familiar with those
portions too.
