  • At last im going down!!!

    Wow Wow!!! I have been on this for 3 weeks and 1 day, and I am FINALLY in the 140's this is great. I am 149.8 as of today. I always seem to go up and down up and down. I was just 144 last summer, but gained and went to 157 throughout the year and over the holidays. But here I am again, and I am finally going back down and this time for good. So my 1st goal is 140 and I want to weigh that by the end of April for my college graduation on May 1st. I actually weighed 140 at my husband graduation 2 years ago, so I thought that was a good goal. But if I happen to be lighter that would be great also. What do you think you think that I can do it.
    Oh and another thing, I have been stopped up TMI constipated since last tuesday after I went to cicis pizza. OOPS. Well, the only time that I have gone is when I have used dulcolax, so I have gone, but only with that. I hope that my body regulates soon, I cant use laxatives to keep on going forever. So I am semi stopped up and still weighed in at 149.8 YEA!!

      Good job! Congratulations! Careful with the laxatives though, I've heard that if you use them too much your body can become dependent on them! I don't think you are using them too much now, but just be mindful of it. I have been taking 2 teaspoons of psyllium husks twice a day for about a week and they are just the best thing! I was seriously stopped up before them! Congrats again!!

        Great job so far!
        Hopefully now you are past the 2 weeks induction and can move onto the OWL ladder rung one and add more veggies it might improve matters!
        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
        Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



        Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!
