OMG! HCB and all my buddies that tout Bulletproof Coffee.... GOD BLESS YOU ALL for introducing me to the Nectar of the Gods. I added cinnamon and a touch of vanilla which is my usual but I finally got some Kerry gold grassfed butter while shopping this morning and had to come home and try the BPC. Kerry Gold - best tasting butter I have had since Grandma Granger's fresh farm churned. WOW! I it brought tears to my eyes it was so good. Best beverage I have had since starting LCHF. AMAZING! WOW! I cannot say thank you enough.

Labor day nearly killed me. Up a lb today> :P OMG I ate too much and I only just shy of 1600 calories and stayed on plan otherwise carbs a little high at just shy of 40 net carbs but nothing over save calories everything else was on target. but still 400 calories more than usual and not even high salt intake. It will go away again I am not worried. I did not eat much before the evening meal and then I didn't go overboard a little but whatever. Will get back on track today though my trip will be salt laden I imagine. I got some apples, almonds, summer sausage, low carb wraps, turkey jerky sausage bites, pork rinds and we will have a few meals out here and there we determined because the salt content of this is mind boggling so I will focus on salads/low salt and as much fresh items as I can when I do get real meals. ANd water only water on the trip no soda - maybe coffee but sadly it will not be bulletproof.

Packing and prepping for the trip today so gonna run out after I finish nursing this cup and take a long walk then get back to finish things up. My posting will be off during the driving portions as I do not use a smart phone. Mine only calls and txts and takes pics when that will work. LOL

Happily, the kitchen is completely finished being set up - though some decorating still to come we are fully functional. My darling daughter finished up sorting out the plasticware for me and we set some things aside for each of the kids boxes for when they get their first apartments. I know it is a few years off but we have been doing this for about 2 years. We decide to upgrade something but save the older stuff and split it for the kids *moving * boxes. Mostly housewares. Plates silverware etc.... things that can get expensive when starting out. We plan on saving $$ and time by this process. Plus they get to take a bit of *home* with them.

Ok off for my walk and packing! Hope you all had a nice and safe holiday weekend and it continues through the coming week!

Up and at em at 6 am and by 6:30AM I was walking. Spent 45 mins and got 2.75 miles in again. No sock issues as I had new socks on this morning so no funny gate. Warmer too, no shivering til I warmed up. Near 7k steps for the start of the day. I think I am off to a good start.

Today we are finishing packing the van for the trip and packing the kids stuff up preparing them for my SIL and other than that we will just enjoy the day have a cookout consisting of grilled country ribs, cole slaw, brussel sprouts, onion, peppers and mushrooms and baked taters for the kiddos.

Tomorrow we will go shopping for things we can try an maintain low carb while trapped in a hotel for a week. They rarely provide meals for the convention that would be close to on plan for me as a lot of it is sandwiches, chips and goodies that are not things I will even consider unless it is a only choice. That and save money as this is a trip to make $$. We park the van upon arrival and do not leave. Which is further limiting. Daily sales start at 9 am and we do not close up wil 9-10 pm every night. I am open to ideas that require no refrigeration as the hotel charges to get a mini fridge in the room as they are not a staple in the place and we stay on premises to protect our investments. Almonds, nuts, pork rinds, beef stick, jerky, some fresh fruit is ok.... so much salt in all that UGH!

Got up and went for a walk almost immediately. It was chilly out and very foggy and my pace was slower because my shoe rubbed my achilles tendon and trying to keep it from rubbing made my gate funny so I did not go as far. No blister but these shoes are not new but the socks were old I think the sock was the culprit where it was thin and thread bare. Did not realize when I picked them out in the dark. Needless to say they are in the trash now. I still managed 2.75 miles. Not bad all things considered. I think I shivered until my body warmed after the first 20 mins, takes that first mile to get me sweating. Hope that means I burned extra calories. :D

More work to do today and hopefully I will get it all finished providing I don't have gazillion interruptions.

Good day yesterday for everyone. Loads of tension dropping away and I slept well, kids were asleep by 10. No issues. YAY! Winner!

I have a lot still to do for the business today and may try to do some walking this evening. Chore day and sit at my desk and work day.

Not a lot else I have to do but get ready for this trip and still have all the boxes of plastic ware to sort and figure out what is useful/needed and has to have a lid and dishwasher safe. Otherwise, it is a gonner and will be recycled. Kitchen is 90% sorted and this being the last dregs of things that I have to take into consideration. TG.

Hoping I can find time on our trip to use the facilities at the hotel to do some working out. If nothing else I will try and get up early to walk. I will be doing a lot of lugging of boxes and walking, so I know I cannot overdo things either. We leave Wednesday and have 2 days of mostly driving ahead of us to get to the convention. Then 4 days of Convention and 2 more of driving.

The past week or so has been emotional and stressful mixed in with good days and I am hoping and praying my son has a good day at school. IEP, crisis plan and behavior plan and positive incentive/rewards are in place and we had to already use the crisis plan yesterday to get the behavior incentives and goals completed. He is not happy that getting game time on the Ipad at school is not on the table thus he went into shutdown and quickly followed with fight or flight... which was flight only this time, so at least there were no major school consequences on day 2 just getting him back safely and into a more logical and receptive mindset to the options they presented unless he could come up with better ones.

*Here's to getting through the day with success for my son.* Which means staying in class and on task... things he was refusing to do all day yesterday. They are issued the Ipads today thus the push yesterday to get all plans in place.

As for me, I stayed on plan though I thought a lot about straying but I know I would only be worse off and in a bad mental place for myself if I did so. I even was under on intake because I was so strident in not folding under the stress and desires for comfort I felt.

Last night was better kids were both asleep by 9 and we had no issues with staying up too late. So hoping better sleep for them (esp my son) means a good day in school. I am fairly sure that impacted his day yesterday as well. I know my lack of sleep impacted my critical thinking, coping abilities, and my ability to focus on tasks at hand. It also impacted my energy to want to do things. It felt like a do nothing day was all I wanted to do and all that I accomplished was coping and dealing with my son.

I did not walk yesterday and today when my husband and I dropped the kids off at school I walked home which is about half of my usual route. I usually do not join in the ride to school but today I wanted to connect with the new VP and the Special Ed teacher so that we could touch base on the behavior plan before my son would make his final choices on incentives. Maybe I will walk again this evening providing we all have a good day.

I am keeping today's goals simple and on point of not pushing myself too far knowing my stress level is already still on panic mode and trying to gear it away from that. Support, smiling faces and prayers are all welcome.

Goals:
- adding new shipment items for convention (4 pages) may take 2 days
- walk ( 1.5 miles done)
- plan and cook dinner
- stay on plan
- remain focused
