    I don't sell ideal protein. I don't recommend it. My friend
    And I just started it together two weeks ago. It is junk food with a lot of protein in it. I usually don't eat that junk food even if it is high in protein,so I have cheated by eating blueberries, etc. It's basically high protein, low carb. Those high protein and low carb diets are suppose to put you in ketosis.

    low carb and high fat puts you into ketosis,not high protein. and you have to net(most people) less than 50g a day to enter ketosis.some people can enter it at a higher number and some have to go lower.

    Tonight I am going to do the bathroom thing at desert. Brilliant

    What bathroom thing at dessert? I hope I am reading this wrong and that you are not saying what I'm thinking.

    I don't think she means what you think she means. :)

    From earlier in the thread:
    When I go to such events, the worst offenders are chips/salsa and then dessert.

    I try to limit both.

    Sometimes I disappear to the bathroom and play 2048 or temple run. I wish pokemon go works when you are taking a dump or just sitting on the toilet seat (hoping the other revellers finish up the chips)

    And when it comes to burgers, I eat one and stuff myself with grilled chicken. No pasta salads or potato salads. Just a lot of grilled chicken and bathroom and no chips/dessert.

    Just go and try to relax on it. Most of these things will have some healthy options, but depriving yourself and feeling forced will not benefit you. It's okay to treat yourself here and there- diets are about a healthy happy lifestyle. Not constant scales and calories! It's okay to count for the most part and stay aware, but if this one weekend you want a hot dog, do it. Cravings left unfulfilled kill our will to diet.
    Drink a lot of water- it will prevent you from excess snacking, which should help. And if food is left out, don't take your whole meal at once- take little bits dispersed through time. Enjoy yourself!

    Thank you for clarifying
