That's great TerriMM! You have still done really well I think, considering that you were not well

And the main thing is that you have made a loss!

Here's me so far:
Day 1: -1.3
Day 2: -1.1
Which now brings me about square again after a day of ridiculous eating/alcohol over the weekend

*sigh* oh well, at least it came off pretty quickly and now hopefully I can continue to make a real loss

Have a great day everyone. Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Whenever I have those backward days Tash I concentrate on the weekly loss rather than daily. Because sometimes a girl has got to live and NOT feel guilty about it

I finally made it under 171. Weighed 170.6 this morning!!! That was hard like two weeks hard...but I am about to be meeting with TOM. Do you all still weigh at that time?
Tashy, I accomplished 71fat, 24protein, 5carbs, but It made for like 1650 calories:/. That doesn't seem like a good idea, huh? I am going to post my menu:
Breakfast: coffee with HWC, 1/2 avocado, 3 eggs, 1T butter, 4 thin slices of bacon
Lunch: 5 hot wings
Dinner: 7oz ribeye, 1T butter and 1c green beans
Good job Tashy, Lori and Terri on the loss!

Hi ienjoylowcarbinit...well done on your loss...even though it took 2 weeks sometimes we just need to persist and try to force it into moving

I still weigh around TOM but I know that I'm anywhere between 1-2kgs heavier than I normally am and I'm ok with that (makes me look forward to seeing the scales drop inevitably a day or so after!).

For me personally it's better to be slightly higher in cals if my it means my fat intake will be around where I need it to be... and I only really take notice of my cals if the scales are not moving and then I realise I need to make some adjustments (kind of a last resort for me). I think you'll be fine where you are and maybe if you try it for a few days to a week then you will know whether it works for your body... You're back on normally l/c now aren't you or are you doing M&E??

CindyCRNA · 03-05-2013, 11:07 PM

We had to put a dear kitty to sleep and I imediantly fell off the wagon. Only carbs would bring comfort but I tell you, 2 days of solid eggs and chicken thighs, it was easy to get back on the band wagon. If you have had a binge and can't get straightened out, 2 days of eggs/thighs seems to get me back on track. I think it is a good tool.

I am so sorry to hear about your dear kitty. They become family to us. I had to put my 15 year old dog down in Oct. it broke my heart. When he started getting bad I started eating and afterward. I know all about comfort food and carbs are it for sure for me. So now I am getting it back off. I lost another lb. today I love this way of eating. 163.8.

LoriAS · 03-06-2013, 06:40 AM

Tashy, IELC, Terri, Krissa - Great job staying on plan!

You guys are all doing so great on this! I started with M&E fast just before totally falling off the wagon. I am just back in to low carb this week. I'll be keeping my eye on this thread and I am sure soon enough your excellent results will convince me I can do it too and have similar results!!

Corvettebuff · 03-06-2013, 06:50 AM

This morning I put the co in my hot tea I tried just a teaspoon to see if I could handle it. No problem at all so tomorrow I will add more. Why can't I find a thread on here about coconut oil. I've searched and can't find. I dropped another lb. this am this is the only way to go.

Cindy, that's very sad news for you, so sorry... pets are always part of the family.

Lori, I'm very interested that you are still losing even with the flax muffin (is this a MIM recipe?) and some cheese in your M&E diet. I would really like to try that because I think it would help me feel more satisfied. Even though I don't usually feel that hungry on M&E it just feels like something is "missing". BTW, I am sooooo going to try that recipe! Thanks for sharing

Terri, not sure what one Lori uses but here is one here that I use 1 Minute Muffin. This can be converted to be savoury (ie. no sugar and add some herbs/cheese/bacon etc) or changed flavour with cocoa powder and omit cinnamon or however you feel like changing it. They are very filling and satisfying and super quick

1500-1650 cals

sometimes less, but rarely more

I don't try, but I don't really worry if I go over either as long as I stay on plan.

WTG CB

I use:

1/3 flax meal
1/2 tsp baking powder
1-2 tsp granulated sucralose
1 tsp cinnamon
1 egg
1 Tbsp butter melted
1-2 Tbsp Torani SF vanilla syrup (only sometimes, and If I do I reduce the sucralose)

Cook in round bowl (muffin/bun size) in microwave at 60 seconds.

If I am making for a lunch or dinner sandwich I use:

1/3 flax meal
1/2 tsp baking powder
1-2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 egg
1 Tbsp butter melted

Cook in round bowl (muffin/bun size) in microwave at 60 seconds.

I usually eat the second one with pork roast or sausage burgers and cheese

Some Cuban pork chunks-huge don't know the weight
Omelette w ham bacon sausage and cheddar
5 buffalo wings

ienjoylowcarbinit · 03-06-2013, 07:33 PM

Hi Krissakris... it's good to know that you can eat whenever your hungry on this plan.. I like the full/satisfied feeling too

Sorry, shouldn't laugh but it seems to be a common "issue"! Coconut oil helps, but if you aren't used to it, go slow because it can "help" too much if you aren't careful

Hello everyone!

I thought I would chime in since I've been doing meat and eggs for a few days now. I picked up extra weight last fall and have NOT been able to get it back down or get my eating under control. The ONLY way I have ever been able to gain control in the past is to do meat and eggs. It's only been a three days and already I have whooshed down 6 lbs. (water weight, I know). If I can stick with it a few more days, I think I'll be able to get back on track.

I restricted calories a bit the first two days, but last night I had a late evening meltdown and ate steak and eggs (which was fine), but I wasn't satisfied and ate an entire pound of shrimp with a TON of butter and garlic! Earlier, I had 2 eggs and steak for breakfast, ground turkey and eggs for lunch, and sipped on hot bone broth all afternoon. My weight maintained, and I think I can start losing fat now that the water weight is gone. Energy level is a bit low though.

I am just back in to low carb this week. I'll be keeping my eye on this thread and I am sure soon enough your excellent results will convince me I can do it too and have similar results!!

No problem at all so tomorrow I will add more. Why can't I find a thread on here about coconut oil. I've searched and can't find. I dropped another lb. this am this is the only way to go.

Lori, I'm very interested that you are still losing even with the flax muffin (is this a MIM recipe?) and some cheese in your M&E diet. I would really like to try that because I think it would help me feel more satisfied. Even though I don't usually feel that hungry on M&E it just feels like something is "missing". BTW, I am sooooo going to try that recipe! Thanks for sharing
