MISS SOPHIE'S PLACE
I began low-carbing in April 2003 and was very strict. I lost 30 pounds in around four months, hit a plateau, but kept it off for a couple years.
I was hit with a death in the family and resulting legal issues which cause a year of intense stress in 2005. I went off-plan, but stayed sugar free. My adrenals stopped working and the combination of stress and poor food choices resulted in me regaining all that I had lost.
I am finally at a place where I can recommit to low carbing since it is essential for my health. I am insulin resistant and cannot eat sugars and starches on a regular basis.
Finally releasing water weight
Posted 06-19-2008 at 07:13 AM by Miss Sophie
Today isn't my normal weigh in, but after two days of losing lots of water, I was curious. My weight had dropped to 204.8 and then strangely went up to 206. I suspect it was some very salty food that caused it because I was definitely "on plan" with no cheats.
Today I was back down to 204.4 (even a bit lower) and my hands don't hurt from swelling, so I think I've finally lost that water weight which feels very good.
For the most part my appetite is still depressed from ketosis and the stix are still a very dark pink.
Today we have a crew coming to install all new windows in our house which is exciting, but I don't know how much upheaval I'll be dealing with, especially in my kitchen. Hopefully, I'll be able to function well enough to get my meals in on time.
