Adventure of the day: I tried Swerve today. Not so sure how I feel about it. I put a little in my coffee, measuring it just like I normally do my Splenda, and it tasted okay but left a sort of weird, sweet aftertaste. It wasn't bitter or anything, like some artificial sweeteners can be, but it was like a cool sensation (cool as in cold, not as in a little awesome) with every breath and anything I ate or drank for the next half hour had a sweet taste. That was okay (but strange) for the water I drink, but it really made my sausage and eggs a little "off".
I'm pretty new to this serious dieting game and have done very little experimenting with some of the products that are on the market today. I recently spent loads of money on ingredients to help me on my path and now I just need to figure out which ones fit in my lifestyle. For now, I have almond flour, coconut flour, Swerve, Stevia, Swerve Confectioners, Coconut oil, raw nuts, chia seeds, and a bunch of other things to play with. It does seem that no matter what, when I find a recipe I want to try, I'm missing some key ingredient that makes it low carb or healthy or whatever. This is hard!
I'm not doing the Paleo or Keto diets, but I do find many of the recipes for these diets suit my goals for myself so I'm feeling my way through a huge maze of things that have become popular since the last time I seriously focused on my diet (over 20 years ago).
Also, I've been wearing this heavy cloak of fat for most of my adult life. I spent years convincing myself that I had nothing to be ashamed of and that I should love myself the way I am, blah, blah, blah. Horsehockey. I'm fat and I don't need to be so I'm finally taking it seriously and dealing with it. And it's going to take a LONG time to undo 20+ years of really bad, poorly justified excuses for not eating as I should.
And so on with the day. Happy Wednesday!
