    Trouble eating enough

    I am really having trouble eating after the 1st week induction.

    Am 6lb down, plus another few over the weekend..my boyfriend is getting shocked everytime he sees me! However I really struggle to eat twice a day at the moment, I know I should be eating three times a day. Always feel full or sick.. having trouble forcing something.

    I have been preparing some snacks, olives, cheese bits, faux meat products. But I just have 0 appetite a week into ketosis

    Well into ketosis everyday, drinking 2-3 litres of water

    Any suggestions or words of advice.. please say it will get better and I will be able to eat again soon?!

      I was the same way, I would actually gag when I started to eat. You just have to look over a list of food and see what sounds tempting. For me it was homemade chicken salad. I lived off of that for awhile and then grilled chicken salads. Anything else made me just sick so I stuck with what sounded good until I got past it. Now I have a big variety of foods that I make and are all wonderful.

          Also find some calorie dense foods to help you keep your calories up. http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/index.html has some great casseroles that fit the bill. a side note...since you are very close to goal you should be climbing the rungs as soon as you finish with induction.

                  I feel for you. I didn't eat breakfast until noon today.
                  Just nothing sounds good. And I'm worrying the stuff I originally bought had nitrates. Then I bought new stuff and failed to realize it has a gram of sugar.
                  Ugh. That alone has ruined my appetite.
