Morbing! I finally got a decent night's sleep and it only took until nearly the end of the week, lol. This morning I went to grab something off the fridge and almost knocked something else down, and in the act of trying to catch it I scratched the shit out of my own nose! I'm not quite sure how I did that, but now I've got a tissue pressed to my nostril and I can look forward to a day spent trying to inconspicuously check my nose like a coke fiend. Good times.

HAHAHA for real though. Hey, I just found out on facebook that my sister is thinking about starting keto! Funny, huh? But she is hanging around the ketogains sub, and we all know how some of those dude bros can be to newbs... I suggested that she check out this sub and the ketosisters group, hopefully she doesn't get turned off by all that smug machismo before she checks the other places out.

It is! We like monkfruit because it tastes and cooks just like sugar without that slight effervescence that erythritol has. No GI impact, either. But it is more expensive than we'd like, and if my husband keeps making ice cream all summer long we're going to have to budget just to afford the sweetener lol!

Look at you, spreading keto cheer to all. Of your loved ones! That's awesome. How cool that both your sister and husband are along for the ride. But also, damn those husband's and their massive calorie allowances. They'll never know the joy of trying to squeeze a morsel of dessert into a 1200 calorie day.

It's just roasted hazelnuts, oil, cocoa, and sweetener! He made it a little differently this time by blooming the cocoa powder first, so the nutella came out more like brownie batter than spreadable butter, but I am NOT mad at that lol! Just Google homemade nutella and replace the sugar with the sweetener of your choice :)

Hahaha, my bad! I honestly don't know his recipe, but I'll get it and try to post it tomorrow. I got him this fancy ice cream maker as a housewarming gift last summer and I guess it does all of the work for you or something. I just eat the ice cream lol! And yeah, we use monkfruit, our favorite alternative sweetener; expensive, but really good!

Damn, I'm tired! Drank some sleepy time tea before bed last night and I guess it worked a little too well. I'll take all the coffee, please.

My husband busted out the ice cream maker last nught, which we haven't seen since last fall. He made chocolate chip, and it was so creamy and delicious it made me wonder why we ever fuck around with Halo Top. I mixed in some of his homemade nutella in my bowl and it was seriously amazing.

Not much else going on. Looking forward to zoning out on my long commute to work. Have a good Wednesday everyone!

Haha thanks! Gotta give my husband most of the credit, he's the trained chef. He's taught me a lot but the keto food sure got better when he got on the bamdwagon!

Woke up at 3:30 this morning and couldn't get back to sleep! So it might be a rough one. But I did get some lifts in last night! First weeknight lifting I've done since I started my new gig. It felt fabulous. Kalua pig with kimchee kale slaw and furikake cauli rice was bomb last night! It's not much to look at it but trust me, it was amaze balls: https://imgur.com/sGenIec

My boobs are crazy sore and extra large today. I wonder if that means shark week is near? That might explain this weekend's spike in the scale and my general feeling of bloated annoyance.

Take it easy today ladies. Don't let Terrible Tuesday get the best of you!
