Last night, I got over six solid hours of sleep—and I feel fantastic. I woke up full of energy, ready to tackle a full day of work.
To keep that momentum going, I’ve packed some lunch to have alongside my vitamins and minerals halfway through the day. The B vitamins should give me an extra boost, helping me finish strong. At least, that’s the plan.
Daily Progress
Here’s how I’m doing today:
Weight Loss
Date | Weight (lbs) |
Weight Goal | 176.0 (80.0 kg) |
2 Jan 2025 – Day 1 | 235.5 (106.8 kg) |
31 Jan 2025 – Month 1 | 209.4 (95.0 kg) |
28 Feb 2025 – Month 2 | 200.1 (91.2 kg) |
1 Mar 2025 | 197.3 (89.5 kg) |
2 Mar 2025 | 199.5 (90.5 kg) |
3 Mar 2025 | 201.5 (91.4 kg) |
📉 Today’s Change: +2 lbs (+0.9 kg)
📉 Total Loss (in 60 days): -34 lbs (-15.4 kg)
📉 Average Loss Per Day: -0.57 lbs (-0.26 kg)
Since I’m experimenting with multi-day breaks from the Carnivore Diet, I fully expect my weight to spike even further tomorrow. This is part of the process.
Blood Pressure (BP)
Date | BP – Before Food (Best of 3) | BP – Before Food (Worst of 3) | Average |
BP Goal | 120/80 | ||
2 Jan 25 – Day 1 | 155/103 | 166/102 | 160.5/102.5 |
31 Jan 25 – Mth 1 | 125/81 | 129/84 | 127/82.5 |
28 Feb 25 – Mth 2 | 120/77 | 147/77 | 133.5/77 |
1 Mar 2025 | 115/81 | 120/76 | 117.5/78.5 |
2 Mar 2025 | 121/77 | 137/83 | 129/80 |
3 Mar 2025 | 133/77 | 146/76 | 139.5/76.5 |
💪 Today’s Systolic Change (First number): +10.5
💪 Today’s Diastolic Change (Second number): -3.5
My blood pressure remains within my preferred range (128/80 – 140/90), so I’m not concerned. Everything is on track.
Blood Glucose
Date | Blood Glucose – Before Food (mmol/L) |
Blood Glucose Goal | 4.2 |
2 Jan 2025 – Day 1 | 7.2 |
31 Jan 2025 – Month 1 | 4.4 |
28 Feb 2025 – Month 2 | 5.1 |
1 Mar 2025 | 5.0 |
2 Mar 2025 | 5.1 |
3 Mar 2025 | 6.1 |
📊 Today’s Change: +0.1 mmol/L
📊 Days in Normal Range (3.9–5.6 mmol/L): 52 out of 59
As predicted, my blood glucose has shot up, and should do so even more by tomorrow morning, if past results with regard to breaking my Carnivore Diet are anything to go by.
Leaning Into My Learning
One thing is crystal clear: carbs make me sleepier than the Carnivore Diet ever did.
That might seem like a drawback, but for my current goal—falling asleep earlier to improve my work performance—it’s actually a win.
That said, maybe I should have started this post earlier… or maybe I shouldn’t have eaten so much today. 🤔 Either way, every experiment gives me new insight.
See you tomorrow! 😊
Warmly,
Paul
