Got nothing to loose but weight. I have a hard time eating veggies anyway. And love how siimple this is. So can't wait to see how it goes for everybody. Thanks for the support these threads give.

Good luck everybody!!!!!

I think you'll do great!! I'm excited to see how it goes for everyone also.

Good idea, we should still be here. I'm trying to do it until thanksgiving so I can indulge in LC pumpkin cheesecake

when you break this fast I guess you are very careful adding in back foods as to not gain back???

I think I can handle 5 days of this.

I will start tomorrow cause tonight I will work out my food for the next 2-3 days as to have plenty on hand. If not, I won't last the day

very interesting.

I think people keep the majority of the weight lost off.
Yes being prepared is key to sticking with this.

[Clueless]

I'm in too.
Do you used mayo or mustard on you EMF?

Just 3-5 Brazil nuts per day is an excellent supplement and very low in carbs.

They're one of those foods I allow even on induction, though it's not strictly by the book, because of the nutrition in them for the carb bang. They also don't tend to make me crave.

*back to lurkdom*

I've never heard of a Brazil nut before Adding it to my grocery list!

So I ate a small piece of beef jerky because my stomach was so hungry. It's still meat just not ideal at all.
I made it home and started up the grill, then grilled some of the most delicious thin pork chops I've ever eaten
I ate three and now I'm full and happy!
I'll eat three tomorrow and then have eggs for dinner.

I'm off to drink lots of water!

This is really interesting-can you eat any kinds of meats? Does it include fish? Do you still use condiments/spices? Are hot dogs off limits? (I just bought some Hebrew National low fat ones today)

I just started JUDDD and I'm still figuring that out, but I might try to do this fast too-what's one more thing to keep track of

[portcop01]

Oceania I do add mayo

Yes lots
I think it's important to get the fat from mayo

And I seriously almost asked what EMF was hahaha

I would definitely eat fish! I ate some fresh spot prawns yesterday. Pretty much any kind of meat. I'm trying to stay away from processed meats because of the sugar and fillers in most.
I use all kinds of spices, mayo, reduced sugar ketchup, butter, and cream in my morning coffee.

I've got a fresh natural rotisserie chicken that I just baked tonight, will make some roast for dinner tomorrow, plus eggs. That will be most of my menu the next few days. I do use butter and mayo but I don't go overboard with either. I can't do cream...it stalls me.

Thanks for the answer! I may try this for a few days-I've got 3dz eggs, a new bag of salmon, some tilapia, a couple burger patties and some chicken breast, so that would get me started (plus the hotdogs )

[mom23kids]

one more question-do you allow any sweeteners? I just made a big batch of egg/chicken salad and the dressing is mayo, mustard and then a bit of splenda. Normally I would eat it on a lc tortilla but I could skip that and just eat it with a fork.

And what about diet soda?

[portcop01]

I do stevia

very interesting.

Back in the day before the Kimmer scandal, this was a very popular part of the LC diet on this forum. There were numerous meat/egg fasts going on at any time.

I think I'm up for a couple of days at least. I've got a ton of eggs in fridge right now.

[Snoangel]

I do splenda only cause I have a small box and am using it up. I'm switching to stevia.

That's my plan too-I just found out Aldi has stevia for really cheap! But I since I am cheap, I'm going to use up my Splenda first lol.

[portcop01]

All stevia is not good for you

[portcop01]

No cheese...

Really? I tried it years ago in drops and didn't like it at all! What kind do you use? I was thinking about trying the vanilla cream.

[portcop01]

Make sure it pure stevia extract no fillers

[portcop01]

Is any one going to watch protein?

[Snoangel]

I'm not tracking cause I think it might stress me for some reason.
But at the same time I'm keeping in mind that too much protein isn't so great. I just don't have a huge appetite so I'm not too worried I'll consume excess protein.

What's the kimmer scandal?

Not sure if we're allowed to talk about it here. Google it, that's what I did.

[tablis]

This is cool I'm subbing to see how you guys all do.
So all you can eat is eggs and meat? does that mean beef only?
no chicken? (sorry if that's a dumb question)

[Trigger828]

just to be sure today's planned menu is:

2 scrambled eggs, 2 slices bacon

tuna with alot of mayo for lunch

3-4 baked chicken thighs

beef stick if required to keep from eating the whole house.

AND CAN I have sugar free jello? someone mentioned a bit of sweetner is ok. Would this be acceptable?



Tweak my menu if you need too. I want to get this right

[Joannew]

May I join please?

I need a jump start on my weight loss, and hopefully, this will do it!

Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs with sharp cheddar (I didn't realize that cheese was a no-no...oops!...will skip from now on!)

Probably have the same for lunch and dinner.

Hope everyone has a great day!

[mom23kids]

I may join in next week-I'll be following along and seeing how everyone does this week though
