Have a good weekend.

[nomorepepsi]

Just ate my yummy breakfast of fresh pineapple and cheddar cheese... currently sipping on some unsweetened tea... I feel refreshed, even though this is my first meal on my plan... how did any of you feel when you had your first low-carb meal? Also, thanks for all the welcomes! Love it... Behlor

[zay]

Thank you Sweet Danielle! Woohoo on getting back to lowest! Mine is 293. Just a few more. I'm following Terri's lead and it's working for me now. I'm not taking any classes this semester and have much less stress. Hope you have a great weekend!

[Rayne_W]

, mcchimento and Behlor!

Danielle, zay, Frankie, and Behlor - WTG!

Judy - Don't lose the faith...remember, losses aren't usually linear (mine is like bouncing a ball down a flight of stairs, at least it was until the holidays - LyricsMom pointed that out to me).

[Phranquie]

@Zay- Awesome losses the last two days, you are doing something right!
@Behlor-Welcome!
@Danielle-Congrats on getting to your low.
@Rayne- What is the concept of a spud day?

Had a good day yesterday stress wise. I did have some planned hummus and pita (did not go over my carb limit), so I think that is why I have not dropped today. It'll come off soon enough.

01/01/13---224.2 Enjoyed a bit too much on New Years Eve
01/02/13---224.2 Back on plan with carbs and calories
01/03/13---225.0 WTH? I am guessing residual water weight from New Years

I'm not taking classes either, we'll be the less-stress-buds Glad things are working for you, you're almost to that number again. Just think, soon you'll be PAST it!

Several JUDDDers (and I think a LCer and HCGer?) have been trying a potato hack (either by-the-book or modified) brought to our attention by Ouizoid. Spuds with spices/seasonings, malt vinegar/ACV, salsa, low-fat broth, no fat (or up to I think 1 teaspoon per potato). For people doing a modified hack -- with other foods on the same day -- they make sure to keep something like a 4-6 hour window between protein foods and their potato meals.

Some people are reporting really good losses that don't spike back after returning to their regular WOE, others not so much. A few reported GI distress, presumably from eating either the skins or potatoes that still had the green layer under the skin (which is toxic).

I can't do repeated days of the potato hack because of boredom ...but I've noticed it really helps with TOM bloat, or in my case, perimenopausal 'ghost TOM' bloat this month. I'm doing it for my JUDDD down days this week.

Wow! Fantastic Behlor!
Happy Writing!

[nomorepepsi]

Thanks, Zay... I like to thank the Academy But seriously, low-carb is definitely for me... I tried low-fat/high-carb, and the sluggishness and the need for constant exercise wore me down... I just ate breakfast -- clementines and Brie cheese -- and I feel full of energy... I wonder what my day will bring... Behlor

[tangolover]

Hi, guys. Feeling very unmotivated right now, sort of disorganized and confused. When I was younger I thought of this state as depression. Now I know, I just lose focus sometimes and I do get it back in time, so I'm not too uptight about it.

Hi Tango. I know what you mean. Sometimes I actually think that I may have adult add because of this. It helps to write everything down on paper that I plan to do...work, chores, shopping, cooking etc...I need to get a daily planner...I had one last year with 6am - 7 pm which helped me alot.
Sending good thoughts your way for a focused, organized day

[nomorepepsi]

Hi, Tango... I get off-track sometimes too, especially since I don't have a 9-to-5 job... but as zay says, it's good to track down your daily events... if you have it down on paper, it's more permanent... funny that you used to consider your "blues" depression... I used to think that way, but I turn 33 this year, and I think that so-called depression is not knowing how to get the things you want... that's why goal-setting is so important... Behlor
