Good morning Fat Secret! It is another lovely day in surgical menopause and I am living my own personal science project...lol.
So scale had an uptick this morning, but I am not recording that because it is not my official weigh in day. I did try a new recipe for dinner, but it was strict keto whole 30. However, I did have two servings of the cauli-fried rice. Not bad for me but just thinking of why the scale may have that uptick. I am not overly concerned. I am doing what I am supposed to be doing and I know it will correct itself.
Not a bad weekend, but I didn't get in a walk. However, Saturday we went to the movies and I persevered with no snacks...no popcorn!!! I didn't die!! I made it!! We walked around the mall some and that was good exercise for me.
Yesterday I felt drained by 11 am. I am doing some research on foods that have natural estrogen so I can start incorporating more of those. Will get to the store this week. Also, I am looking into collagen powder to add. Not sure if any of my readers have tried this or use it. I will ask a couple of groups that I am in (on Facebook). Since that is something that my body will also slow down on and I do want to fight the battle of premature aging.
Will get my exercise in today and try to manage my stress level with work.
Mostly I need to manage the brain fog and try to stay focused. Usually low carb/keto helps with that but it isn't helping as much with the brain fog since the surgery. I am thinking I may need to switch and add some straight up MCT oil in my diet.
Here is to a successful week!

I just bought some collagen powder to try out. Haven't had it yet. I will let you know how I feel about it. I realized after getting it that it was not collagen 2 which is what I really want. So I will probably change brand later on. I will keep buying bones and making broths which are also collagen I think

Hey Liv - I have not made bone broth, but I heard that is a good source of collagen. I saw some Collagen that had Type I, II, III, V and X in it. I need to do more research on the types, but I think I need all the help I can get to navigate this new territory that I am in. Please let me know what you think. I saw where some folks got some Vanilla at Costco and put it in their coffee. I may go to Costco today and check out what they have; I need more Coconut Oil anyway :)
