    Sorry about your loss. That's just horrible.

    It's good that you are determined to get back on track with your atkins. You'll be able to direct those emotions you have to something constructive. As for getting back into ketosis....it really depends on how big this cheat was and how much of those carbs were stored as glycogen. But no matter, just get back on track so you can get back into ketosis.

      Mistie, I'm very sorry for your loss. It's one thing to lose a friend or family member to a desease. That's hard enough. But, this. I feel very badly for you and especially her children. You have my prayers.

      Yea, I've cheated big time before. Typically, it was about 4 days later before it appeared I was back in ketosis. 4-5 days later and I might have a little loss which I'm sure was water. Everyone is different.

      I'm proud of you getting back on track after such an emotional rollercoaster I'm sure you have been on.

          I am so so so sorry about your loss.. that is horrible...I agree with forbey...just pick up where you left off.. I have cheated a whole week and gained 25 pounds and it took a couple of weeks to lose it..and then I have cheated on a midnight snack and it took me a couple of days...I do not know how to use those sticks...but that's what happened to me.. I think its important, just to hop on and look forward...again I am so sorry...

            Mistie I'm so glad you're back. I have a tendency to eat at what's eating me as well. Posting to the boards regularly really helps me keep my resolve. It also gives me a place to vent in a healthy way rather than eat at it.

                  Just go back to extended induction and drink a lot of water. You should be back in ketosis in 2 days. it's good you posted about it!
