  • Monday check-in

    Good morning all

    Thanks for your good wishes for my Dad. He is so much better now. It's likely he'll come home from hospital in the next couple of days.

    I am back on the program today. As I said in a previous post, I have eaten very eratically. Sometimes nothing, other times lots of junk... not good but I just couldn't stick to the plan during all the stress. I have to say that I did not enjoy the carbs and felt bloated, fed up and tired so I would have been better off sticking to Atkins. I put 4 pounds on. Anyway........

    I am going to stick to induction for a few days to get back in ketosis before moving back to my modified OWL rung. Plan for today is high protein and fat and loads of water - a pint (16 ounces) an hour until early evening and then I'll slow down a bit.

    I very much hope everything is well with you. I see there are quite a few newbies who I look forward to 'meeting'.

    Have a nice day everyone.

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

        Hi Zara,

        Glad to hear your dad's doing better. I'm reinducting too b/c I fell off the wagon. I didn't have nearly as much stress as you did, though, so I have no excuses. Here's to us getting back on track!

            Yay, Zara. I am so glad to hear he is doing better. My Dad was sick earlier this year and it was so awful. He, too is so much better. Makes you feel a bit vulnerable, though, huh? Glad to hear you are tracking again...
            149.8/no weigh/ 119



            1st goal: 139 (earlier weight)
            what the rungs mean to me:
            rung 1 - more veggies
            rung 2 - dairy (some milk in coffee)
            rung 3 - seeds, nuts (mostly sprinkled on salads)
            rung 4 - berries, melon
            rung 5 - wine -
            rung 6 - beans, hummus
            rung 7 - other fruits
            rung 8 - carrots/ potatoes (nah, prolly not)
            rung 9 - whole grains (fresh Dutch breads...)
            Major Goal - 128 lbs/ healthy range
            (on to pre-maintenance)
