Not new to low Carb, starting again......!

[M1che11e]

Hello!

I low carbed three years ago, and lost 145 lbs. Over the past year, I have gained 10-15 lbs, and before that I wanted to loose 10-15 more to reach my goal...so I have decided to get strict before I loose control like I once did. Last week I low carbed, and I am very resistant to loosing weight, so this week I have decided to use my old friend the fat fast to kick my weight loss into gear again!

Anyways, I enjoy reading the bb's for support and motivation!

Hi, Michelle Welcome to ADBB!

Good for you for getting strict, before losing control.

Last week I low carbed, and I am very resistant to loosing weight, so this week I have decided to use my old friend the fat fast to kick my weight loss into gear again!

When you say you low carbed, do you mean that you did a squeeky clean Induction, eating at 20 net carbs per day, only from the acceptable food list? How much weight did you lose during that week?

The Fat Fast is risky business. At the very least, most people gain back the weight fairly quickly. Since it is not balanced nutritionally, it is to be reserved for the most severe cases of metabolic resistance to weight loss.

I'm glad that you've found us. Have you visited the STAC forum yet? That's the Second Time Around Club, and is a great place for support. Also, don't forget to read the sticky at the top of this forum, addressed to new people. It will provide a great refresher on the Atkins WOE for you, and help you to navigate the board. Good luck!

If your talking to me, thanks! I will feel better when I get down 10 lbs, back to my old "normal" zone, and excited to reach new territory!
