    Different foods causing immediate slow-down

    I'm stilllosing about 1 pound a week which is fine since I'm about 10-15 pounds from goal. I do notice that whenever I eat/drink something higher on the rungs, no matter my total carb intake for the day, I'll definitely not lose anything for the next few days. I can take my count higher without that happening with most of the foods, but if I have a high rung fruit or more than one glass of wine for example, forget it. Has anyone else experienced this?

    yes and I think it has to do with the sugar in those foods and water retention more than anything ..if you are not overeating it will all equal out ...

      There is one food combination that doesn't stop or slow weight loss for me, but it triggers massive cravings---tomato and eggplant. I can eat them separately with no problem. But together in any dish...you'll be restraining me from eating all the wallpaper in the house.

      It's all about how our individual bodies react to foods. And that's why I love this diet. I know what foods are Megs-friendly and what foods aren't.

          The sugar content! Goo point.

          Also the food combinations. If I have too much protein early in the day I get cravings. I don't really find myself overeating but I jst can't stop wanting food on those days. If I have carrots I get that way also. Boy, isn't food experimaentation fun? lol

            Protein is a double-edged sword. You need it, but you don't need too much of it because part of it converts to sugar. Strange to think that eating too much fillet mignon is like eating a banana, but it is.

              I don't even realize it until I notice I'm still hungry. I'm big on making sure I get the fat into every meal.

                Cream and cocoa powder does that to me too. It's not even a good idea for me to have cream cheese and cocoa in the house at the same time.
