So today is my 4th day returning to (my slightly amended version of) the ex150--I'm not a coffee drinker, so I throw a couple of teaspoons of matcha powder into a pint of heavy cream (ultra pasteurized w/carageenan) fortified with a diet sweetener and sip from that through the day. I'm registering 1.7-2.1 pounds lost each day (so far--early days on this segment so a lot of that is no doubt water weight, and my gut emptying out a bit). My day usually includes a couple of Diet Cokes as well--old habits die hard. Significantly easier than extended fasting. This has so far been a lot of fun, and I want to thank you!
What kind of cream have you been using? Is it ultra pasteurized or not? Is it pure cream or is it mixed with a thickener like carrageenan? It is becoming harder to find non ultra pasteurized cream that is just pure cream, unfortunately, so I'm curious what you're using.
