Allergy to Mushrooms???

[jsj0305]

Okay, so I have been doing atkins for almost 7 weeks....and now I am stalled....a for real stall, and it's very frustrating. I was reviewing my food journal (I'm a dork..LOL) and I noticed that in the beginning I was having mushrooms here and there maybe 1/4 with breakfast and that's it...2 or 3 times a week. Then I started having about 1 cup everyday...and I stopped losing inches, pounds...everything.

I decided to not have any yesterday, despite really wanting them, and this morninng the scale FINALLY moved!

B/c of my frustration, I had a regualr dinner one night and I did gain water weight...and it was still hanging around. You think this is my water weight finally moving after my cheat or an allergy to mushrooms?? I had the dinner Sunday Night but I was back in ketosis Tuesday morning.

Thanks in advanced!!!!

I have had a very similar stall and I read that it could be because of vinigar intake. They suggest to quit eating any kind of viniger, including aged food such as mushrroms, any cheese that is aged (only leaving mozerella and cream cheese), any dressing that has viniger in it, pickles.... etc. I am still trying to determine if this is the reason for my stall.

Re: Allergy to Mushrooms???

well....
it definately could be from the mushrooms in my 'opinion', but that is just my opinion! Keep away from them for a week and see if it helps and then next week add them in 2-3 times the next week and see what the difference is? hope that helps!
