Well, my tomato consumption (11.5 oz) got away from me. Just need to pay more attention, or come up with a check off sheet. BTW, I found a Kraft Italian Vinaigrette that has olive oil as the primary oil.
I sautéd 3 oz mushrooms in butter and olive oil to have with my pico de gallo and fried eggs for breakfast.
Major nutrients in 3 oz white, raw mushrooms: 15 cal, zero fat, 2 g protein, 2 g carbohydrate, 1 g fiber, 1 g digestible carb, 17% Daily Value for riboflavin, 13% for niacin, 10% for pantothenic acid, 11% for copper.

I can’t believe that your are sticking to this so well.
I thought that after about a month, you’d surely add back the carbs you missed.
Looks like your weight is pretty stable.
Any thoughts on what the future holds.
Hi, Judith.
As I look in the mirror, I see a little too much fat still on my flanks. I’m going to stay the course and see if I can lose it. May need to start exercising more. Will continue to monitor caloric intake to see if I’m eating too much. If I eat too much fat and protein, my body will utilize that instead of burning my own fat.
Eventually I expect to add small amounts of veggies, fruits, whole grains, and legumes, keeping it “low-carb” but not “very low-carb.” Not sure yet. It doesn’t seem “right” that I have to obsess so much about fiber and adequate micronutrients.
