  • Miraculous no appetite, could this be ketosis?

    I'm a little over midway through induction, and yesterday for breakfast I had a hard-boiled egg and string cheese stick. This completely filled me up and I wasn't hungry until about 3 pm!!! WOW!!! and I passed up Burger King food with my 9 year-old, not even craving french fries! We drove through the drive-through and he, from the back seat, innocently said "Mommy, these french fries are GOOD!". I had NO interest in them whatsoever! Me, someone who usually is hungry and wants to constantly eat 24/7!

    So, is it working? Is this sort of thing a sign of ketosis? If so, this is AWESOME!!! And will this keep up?

    I have about 100 lbs. to lose, and feeling skinnier already!

      Appetite supression is a sure sign of ketosis... just be sure to not go more than 6 waking hours without eating *something*.

        Thanks, gman and Lyssie - I am truly amazed that today, I am actually satisfied with a hamburger patty and celery sticks with cream cheese for lunch! When just a few weeks ago, it would have been a Whopper and large fries and I'd be wondering what's for dinner! This is great!!!

          Isn't it? I love that part. I had 2 bacon and 1 egg for breakfast (the same bfast every day) and then 1 oz of cheese 4 hours later (I eat 3 hours before I even go to work so i get hungry before lunch for sure) I always have 2 Cups of romaine with 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes and either tuna w/ mayo or eggs w/ mayo on top then I'm not hungry again until dinner... That is so much less than what I used to eat (maybe even in one meal at fast food!)

          I LOVE IT!!! Congrats on geting to this point!
          Have a Beautiful Day

            I am also feeling the same way, my appetite is gone like i don't even get hungry i actually am starting to force myself to eat so that i could get used to eating at least 4 meals per day. Now what i noticed that is helping me alot and i mean alot is drinking alot of water i will go to the bathroom and not even half of what i drank would go down the drain before i used to drink the same or probably less amount of water but my body would stay with like 70% so i know that is really helping me, so i feel much better energy wise and i am starting to go to the gym. hurrayy! good luck every one
