Three weeks, rash free. And fingers.

So I’ve made it three weeks without more than 20g of carbs a day.  And I have not had any rash this entire time.  This is the longest I’ve gone with clear skin in more than 18 months.  I’m impressed.  But I still want to eat toast.

Also, my fingertips are too sore to play the Uke tonight.  Must rest them.

Today’s low-carb meal

Cream of Chicken Soup – Homemade, with whatever was on hand in the fridge version.

I’m still hanging on to the Keto diet.  I’m still in Ketosis. And I have now been more than 2 weeks without a facial rash.  Yay to less dermatitis!

In the soup:

  • PC broth carton, Ramen flavour (I had never seen this flavour before)
  • A small bit of onion, celery and carrot (mirepoix)
  • Zucchini noodles
  • Cauliflower
  • Garlic
  • Dash of fish sauce, dash of soy sauce
  • Chicken breast, cooked and chopped
  • Spicy hot pepperette (one small one sliced very thin)
  • Table cream (18%) – enough to whiten the soup, not to make it thick.
  • Fresh pesto (drizzle on top before serving)
  • Shaved parmesan (just a bit on top)

It’s actually very tasty.  And filling.  But I still miss toast.
