Oh yeah, these little low-grade, nagging aches...but I usually ignore them. Never had problems with nausea, but I do feel as if someone has pulled the plug on me if my cals drop too low, a very weak, drained sensation.
A couple of notes on yesterday's intake...
Had a change of plans on last night's diet. Nothing major, but the numbers didn't end up as I posted them. Although I'm pretty sure the Journal Police won't take me away for this.
Coffee...
I have determined that Coffee (the way I consume it, anyway) has got to go. Even with the "low fat" creamer, it is contributing too much in the way of fat and carbs....anywhere from 3~8g of each, per cup.....those little numbers that will screw everything up. Soooo, Black it is.
Fish oil...
I'm not sure if I remember folks including the calories and fat from Fish oil, but since I'm ingesting the stuff, I think it is logical to count it.
Sugar...
I'm not sure if that single gram of sugar (in products [supp.s] that indicate a miniscule amount of carbs and fat, and that damn 1g sugar) is going to do too much damage to my dieting efforts. Pre or Post workout, that gram of sugar is keeping me from using some handy supplimental products. But it seems to me that, since the goal is too keep carbs to a minimum, then sugar should be out entirely.
Missed breakfast...gotta go whip up some eggs.
Oh, by the way, Hunger/Appetite has left town. I'm finding it increasingly difficult to eat these foods.

Just a couple of notes....
All hunger and/or appetite have left the Country....the thought of eating eggs at this very moment makes me want to hurl.
Living with a daily headache is possible, but not pleasureable.
I no longer like tuna with mustard.
This is the end of week 3...of 6...possibly 12....Blah.
The true test of focus and determination has begun.

Last night I went to Olive Garden and had 2 breadsticks, the 5 cheese ziti entrie and a piece of cake for dessert to finish off my carb load.
Tuna with mustard you say? That sounds good too.

Oh dude, was it that Black Tie Mousse cake? That stuff is out of this world. It'll put you in a chocolate coma for about a week. When I die, that's the way I want to go. Choooooooocolaaaaaaaaate. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Oh ALBOB, it was great man... they had those little chocolate shavings adorning the top. It was awesome! I only ate half though, I was so stuffed by all that Ziti. Good times!
Eating eggs.
FMJ and ALBOB, you're both assholes.
I approve.
damayor, I didn't bother counting fish oil at first, since it was there every day anyway, but I started to because I wanted to track my intake of monos, saturates and polys. Yes, I am a geek.

Oh don't let him play the innocent victim Built... he get's his shots in too!
Making a concerted effort to ignore the peanut gallery, I will respond to your...Built's...response.
I was trying to keep track of every iota of macros....but honestly, I don't think fat has as much impact as Lyle suggests....not ten grams anyway.
Besides, my new bestest friend t45k (the sexual intellectual at Body Recomp) is adamant in his use of "unlimited"....Therefore, I will consume two cases of broccoli a day, along with two tubs of Crisco.
Even with the coffee creamer, the 3.32 cals in Splenda and the fish oil, I'm right back in to ketosis (not the objective, I know) so something's going on. We'll see when I hit the gym/scale today.
By the way, I'm not craving anything. Eating is a chore, and tuna sucks. No, scratch that, Turkey Cutlets suck.
Current Weight...232.
Today's Workout....a nightmare with a decent ending.
Lat Pulls 4 sets x 8 @ 120(w/u), 130, 140 150
Nautilus (vert chest/hammer) press 4 x 8 @ 180(w/u), 230, 270
Seated (compound) Rows 4 x8 @ 180 (w/u), 270, 360, 380 (x4)
D.B. Press 4 x 8 @ 50(w/u), 55, 65, 70
Leg Press (sucked!) 3 x 8 @ 410, 500, 590
Leg Extension 4 x 8 @ 120(w/u), 150, 170, 200.
Weighted Crunches. 3 x 8~10 @ 110, 125, 150
The Workout
The diet is most definately taxing my energy level now. At least today it is. It seems to me that my energy is lowest when I am making the transition into ketosis. Once in, I level off, and strength improves...generally.
Strength SUCKED (initially) today, especially legs. I had planned on getting back into squats, but decided to do some leg press first.....Obviously, those numbers up there give you an idea of how He-Man I was.. ..I never had a chance to touch squats today. Quads were cramped, weak, and felt as if they were on the verge of injury through every rep. 
Press movements were okay. I did add a little weight on the DB press, and was able to maintain form well. I love rows.....My screwed up right arm didn't repsond too well to doing them, but I love 'em nonetheless.
Today's Sustenance-ez
Egg Whole 63cal, 4.4f, 0.3c, 5.5p

Okay, so who beat the crap out of me while I was asleep?
I'm glad I have a few days off before my next workout. I can't figure out how I pulled every muscle in my body using less weight than I have in past weeks.
DOMS DA-DOMS-DOMS............. DOMS DA-DOMS-DOMS... DOHHHHHMS!

Alright, today's daily totals.....951 calories, 17.0g Fat, 9.3g Carbs, 182.1g protein.
I'll spare you all from the menu details....assuming you haven't gone into a collective coma from previous input.
RFL........PSMF............ EXCITING, AIN'T IT?!

I gotta hand it to you.. I don't know how the hell you can funtion on that little amount of calories.
Whats your total weight loss so far?
More importantly, how many inches are you down?
I won't lie...It ain't easy. But this has been a good lesson in how to monitor my body's responses, and how to stay focused and "think" my way through workouts instead of going to the gym all jacked up expecting to break records. TwinPeak, an old poster here, was big on the "mind body connection"...I think I now better understand what he was talking about.
I've lost about 10 lbs. in the past three weeks. Haven't taken any measurements....didn't feel the need to since I have quite a bit of fat to get rid of.....but I know one thing, if this restaurant fails I can always get a job as a plumber because my damn pants keep falling off! LOL!
I think I am losing fat in reverse of how I gained it.
I have to keep walking...I have no other choice, lol.
Today's Totals.....991calories, 18.6g fat, 3.3g carbs., 185.8 protein.
Alright...free meal yesterday....Mexican.....about a handful of chips and salsa, beef Fajitas (minus the tortillas of course...abandoned the rice) with the big "cheat" being some sour cream and three tablespoons of re-fried beans.
I am such a culinary party animal.
Workout today, possibly. Depends on this forearm/elbow and sinus flare-up...feel like somebody beat me up again. We'll see how eveything rolls by this afternoon.
Back on the dietary wagon.....let's see how long it takes those carbs to deplete this time.

For about a year and a half after I got out of the Air Force I was the Asst. GM of Las Vegas Roto-Rooter. I've seen more Plumber-butt than any man should have to endure in 10 lifetimes. Please, Noooooooooooooo more!!!
I'll remember to tighten my belt.
Alright, today's projected food totals are as follows:
876 Calories, 12.3g Fat, 7.5g Carbs., 170.1g Protein
That's cutting it right down to the minimum requirements......to match my minimal energy level...and even though I know I'm supposed to, I don't feel like eating.....especially TUNA.
Workout is scrapped until tomorrow. I'm not sure what's going on, whether it be sinus symptoms or starvation, but I feel like condensed CRAP today. Going to the gym would be a wasted trip, I'm afraid. Besides, it wouldn't hurt my "injured" forearm/elbow to have another day's rest.
I wonder how many carbs are in NyQuil.....or Whiskey, for that matter.
