    27 Total Carbs 16 Net carbs yesterday... all the craziness of lacrosse is winding down... I need to get my gym routine back in action. I normally do not miss many workouts, these past three weeks have been my worst in years for making the gym.

    Totally fell off the wagon yesterday. I have no idea how many carbs I ate, but there were a lot of refined carbs and sugar. I am definitely paying the price today. Huge weight gain, and intestinal issues. UGGHH!

    Weight might just be water retention from inflammation? See what it does in a few days?

    Anyone else trying to drink a gallon of water a day? I think that's way worse than not eating carbs.
    27 carbs total, 17 net.

    I'm not sure how many carbs I ate today. The place I got it from isn't actually on this app. It's a family owned restaurant. I guess I'll just have to do a ketosis test in the morning and see where I'm at.

    FUNNY - So I have lost about 15 lbs in the last 24 days. I was shopping today and my undies and pants kept scootching down. Then somehow, my undies were below my butt. No way I was going to reach in and fix them..... so..... maybe I lost some inches on my hips or butt? Perhaps I can find some old pants that will fit again!

    I got to 96 today. I'm trying to add more every day. My calorie count has dropped off dramatically because I'm too full of water to eat.

    I've never heard of very many people being able to reach ketosis eating over 20-30 grams of net carbs !! I've been doing it for two months.. Love it! I've been doing 27net carbs, but I'm going to lower it to 20.

    Do side bends or situps... but please don't lose that butt!!!

    Yesterday I had 33 Total Carbs but only 18 Net carbs. I did get a lifting session in last night and I was happy for it. I weighed in and was only down 1/2 a pound this week, but I am feeling slimmer and better overall. I'm going to keep chugging away at this and hoping that I see a big loss come popping up in a week or two.

    Maybe that gallon of water a day ck2d is talking about might be what I need to get things moving.. I normally have about 40oz of water or iced tea while I am at work. I'll try doubling that today.

    I'm at my lowest weight since before I was pregnant! I'm so excited. I've been stuck in a 3 lb range for the last several weeks and I've finally broken out of it :)

    20 carbs today.
    I got 128 oz of water in. It's getting easier.

    I almost got some Halo Top today, and found this stuff called Arctic Zero. The numbers were even better than Halo Top - 35 calories and 7 carbs per half cup.
    Don't fall for it. I got the chocolate, and it tasted like someone had a glass of chocolate milk with ice, drank the milk, left the ice to melt, and then drank the leftover liquid. Tasteless and the texture was weird, like frost that has collected on the outside of a frozen carton.

    Oh My Goodness I did the same thing on the 23rd. I got the Arctic Zero because of the carb count, tried the Chocolate Peanut Butter. It was soooo bad. I ate half a serving (1/4 cup) in hopes it would "get better" but it never did. It was sooooo bad!
