    Brenda that looks like a good plan definitely let us know how it works for you. I was thinking of going LC after the new year, but the alternate day plan may be a better idea. Definitely less restrictive.

    Ha! Don't we all? No sooner than we make a plan, the plan is modified. I've made at least a hundred changes on my journey.

    What's the reason for the change to LC? Or do you just feel like it! :)

    So I believe that I have better losses if I add in a couple of high carb days during the week so I will be doing that from now on along with my splurge day weekends :)

    Did you mean if you add a couple of LC days? I do think an occasional high carb day is good also.

    Nice! I have fallen back in to low carb eating naturally - likely because it was so cold, and I wanted really rich foods. I may try out your pattern in maintenance if I decide to stick with LC. It definitely looks sustainable!

    Bob, no I meant HC days...I usually only have 1 during the week but this past week I had 2 and that was better :)
