        • No, I have not tried the fat fast because I don't think I could stick to it long enough for it to work. But I have a friend who has lost 60 pounds since last September on Atkins, who had a 4 week stall and she broke it by bumping up her carbs for a couple days and lost 5 pounds this past week. I prolly should not post that here but I am going to try it anyhow.

          • As far as I know, a fat fast for 2 days should do the trick....
            I won't judge you for doing a carb fest, I would probably do the same if I was in your situation. Just expect to feel bad for a day or two after upping the carbs.....We'll be here for you through it...

                      I go with Coop on this one. I cannot tell you how many times I have gone through this with people. It is almost always the same story. I big slip, and we are talking weeks, or many times months of sliding backwards. Once you have your commitment set in your mind, keep it! If you are really stuck, just do the fat fast for two days, and it may just be enough. The carb loading is such a willpower destroyer. For whatever reason.. a birthday party, a vacation, family comming over, or just to carb load to try to get a whooshie, it is extremely painful to get back on track, and I know so many that just couldn't do it at all.
                      Big hugs to you!

                      • I suppose you are right but 6 weeks is a long time to wait no loss of inches or weight, espically when you are doing everything by the book as well as you know how. It makde a body wanna say 'heck with it' . But I won't do that because I am in this for the long haul. I just wanna get things going downward again!

                            • O.k I have decided that I don't want to carb binge so I am going back to induction for a week and see what happens.

                                Way to go sparrow! How are you this morning? All is well here. I have dropped 4 so far this week after an almost 2 week stall, so I am very happy. I still have a few more days until weigh in, but this week has been good to me.
                                I know you will break your stall this week. It is always such a little thing. Do you know what my stall was this week? I wasn't getting enough veggies LOL. Everytime I slide off the plan a little.. my weight just quits moving. Or, if I go above 20% protien, that stops me as well. I am so happy you have decided to do induction again. It will be worth it!
                                *hugs*
