a little help please???

[Carrie Ellen]

Very stressful week... daughter tested positive for mono, spent 2 full days in court for my friends custody case.... ate crackers before i testified so I wouldnt vomit on the stand.... Out of ketosis, emotionally drained... how do i get back on track?

I did awesome the first 5 weeks, i focused solely on myself... but the last week was 110% about everyone else and now im anxious like nobody's business.

I hit the gym for 2 hours this morning so im beat.... but trying to push through the rest of the day. I weigh in Tuesday so I will be hopefull that I havent taken 2 steps back.

Advice? What do I do until my appt Tuesday?

Hi Carrie! Don't stress! I've gotten out of ketosis once or twice and was able to get right back in by going back to week one eating for a day or two (I really think I've only had to do it for one day). After eating just my protein for one day I seem to go right back in and then I just gradually add the vegetables back in.

For example, if I were out of ketosis on Sunday I would eat only protein on Monday. Then, Tuesday morning if I was back in ketosis I would add my one cup of vegetables. Then Wednesday increase to two cups and finally, bu Thursday I would be back to my 500 calories of protein and 3 cups of vegetables (not to exceed 20g of carbs). Hope this helps! Good luck, you're doing awesome!
