Orange County, CA.  January 22, 2010 – It’s the morning of day (5) on the Orange County UltraLite (weight-loss) Program and now down 7.5lbs – 167lbs.  This is the third day of being in ketosis, and I lost another .3% of body fat.  Now down to 13.7%.  I just got a new body fat tester, more accurate and I can see 10ths of a percentage change.

I do have to admit; last night my stomach was rumbling a bit for the first hour and half.  I ate dinner at 5:00pm and went to bed at almost 11:00pm, so not much in my stomach.  It passed and I slept great until the torrential down-pour started around 12:30am.   No worries though; I fell back to sleep and didn’t wake-up until 6:30am.

Being in a state of ketosis is pretty amazing.  I think that this is the key to losing weight or if you need to function at a higher level for a while.  The weight drops quickly and the clearness one feels in the head is something you have to personally experience to understand what I am talking about.

I look forward to being down to 10% body fat, which is coming real soon.

Ultra Lite Dinner - BBQ NY Strip Steak with Braised Brussel Sprouts and Asparagus

My Ultra Lite dinner tonight.  BBQ New York strip with cracked pepper, crushed garlic and sea salt.   To accompany the steak I braised some Brussel sprouts and asparagus and finished them off with a little melted butter, garlic and sea salt.  I also made a simple dipping sauce for the steak from sugar free Dijon mustard and horse radish.

I can’t believe that people find it so hard to stick to a diet.  This meal was filling and tasted great.  Yes, I do miss my wine but that will come soon enough.
