So, I'm having a ball following a keto lifestyle. At first I was worried it would severely hinder my cooking with the restrictions, but I think it's actually done the opposite. And I think my food actually tastes better now. So many people at work are living off salads sadly until they snap and eat a bunch of pizza, meanwhile I'm eating stuffed chicken, bacon, and steak. (lol.)
I have a coworker that was sitting near me the other day at lunch, and asked about what I was eating. (Cheesy Chicken and Broccoli Jambalaya leftovers, in NO way does it look like it's healthy for you) and she knows I'm on a diet since we've been comparing them and are competing to see who loses weight faster. She looks at my food, then looks at hers (chicken salad, no dressing, with fruit on the side) then looks at me incredulously and says "And you've visibly lost weight eating this stuff too!" And calls her friends over so everyone oooohs and aaaaaahs over the food and goes on about how they're sick of salad and chicken breast with veggies.
Today I brought Shepard's Pie and she's yells out in the breakroom "THAT'S DIET FOOD?!" And I think she's snapped and lost her mind, lol. I was thinking maybe next time I make something like this I'll pack her a lunch too. I love how the food looks and TASTES good, and we're not really having to give up things we love. Just have to get creative sometimes. ;)
We went to weigh in for the contest our office is doing today, beforehand she saw me eating bacon out of a Ziploc for breakfast. Threw her hands up in the air when she heard me say "Oh, I've lost a pound since I woke up." It's pretty funny.
