100 Days of Keto (Chow) Day 101
How about some of my other markers? This morning I weighed myself and was a little disappointed to find that I was 0.1 lbs short of hitting 200 lbs (again).
I started this experiment at 244.016 lbs on January 2 and ended today (April 12) at 200.107 – meaning my total weight loss for the 100 days was 43.909 lbs or 19.91 kg. I averaged a 0.439 lb weight loss per day over the 100 days (it was 0.49 up until day 80).
So, where does all of this leave me now? I’m with Beverly: “I do plan to continue using butter as my preferred fat source in my shakes unless there is a reason to stop based upon the blood lab test results” For me, butter checks a lot of the boxes:
- cheaper
- easier to store
- easier to transport
- lots of fantastic saturated fats
- short chain fats
- tastes amazing
- salted butter has more sodium
So, I’m officially done. Had my first meal after my 100-day experiment where I was eating ONLY Keto Chow for all of my meals every day. What was my first meal? Chocolate Mint Keto Chow with half a stick of butter. It’s delicious =)
Now comes the not-so-fun-but-important part: compiling all my data for the experiment. I did pull a bunch of graphs and reports out of Cron-O-Meter, Heads-up Health, Keto Mojo, LEVL, and I put on my Zozo Suit again this morning to get measurements. Let’s see what it said!
Here are all of the measurements I took plotted on a graph, you can see the raw values on the “Zozo Suit” Tab of this spreadsheet.
