I have messed up quite a few times. I think that the body just wants all of that bad stuff....sooo badly. But when you do get back into ketosis, you will lose what you gained, for me, I lose and half the rate that I gain. (Life sucks, and then you die.).

Though that tips thing helped make the oatmeal palatable. Wheat bran. Who'd of thunk it. It sure looks like it would make you regular.

I soooo agree! I remember getting so upset about it for the first couple of months. One guy wrote "Your fat because you eat fast food" which, btw, I don't. Spelling error was included. His icon was the General Lee. The assumption that it's all your fault you've gained weight is ridiculous. I remember when i was back in my…

I call them the "medifarts." and they usually happen in the first week on the program. I didn't have much relief from the digestive health supplements, i'm sad to say. I think it's the bars too. I've just started to take walks around the building.... (Did you know that flight attendants call this "crop dusting?") when i…

I've found that the most effective thing to do is to get a fitbit (or similar activity tracker...but nike is a waste of money) and wear it for a week to figure out what you normally walk. Then check it and make sure you're doing 10K steps a day....increase over time. Then, add in cardio or strength training. The first time…

Then there is this... http://www.theonion.com/video/new-psychedelic-weight-loss-drug-transforms-food-i,26119/

I gained weight just thinking about all of that. YUM. But the onion states the following: New Study Finds It Is Impossible To Lose Weight, No One Has Ever Done It, And Those Who Are Trying Should Give Up WASHINGTON—According to a groundbreaking new study published Monday in the Journal Of The American Medical Association,…

Day 6 for me!

Also....the picture of the Mac and cheese on the brochure makes it look like a huge bowl, but they must have photographed it in a ramekin.

50 days, 15 lbs....

Me too sweetie. I lost 45 and gained it all back plus some with the same types of issues. I finally bit the bullet and went back on the wagon. I've lost 15 lbs so far and am still 20 lbs from fitting into the new clothes I bought last April. It's ok...just find little motivational ways to help yourself. 1) book a mani pedi…

Ok. I'm taking the plunge and trying the macaroni and cheese and the chili cheese puffs.

Awesome. Just....hilarious. I was thinking the other day that the worst part of going off plan was that i remembered the taste of BREAD. Remember the good old days when we were convinced that fat was a demon and if only we would eat fat free, we'd be so thin? I ate pasta for breakfast lunch and dinner and ate a bunch of…

I save one for right before bed. Ambien makes me hungry and ruins my willpower. So that's what I do.

You go with your bad self!

This is a hard one ,and I've been on both sides. In fact, it's about the least fun topic ever. When i got pregnant and gained a bunch of weight, i had never been so large in my life. I don't know about you guys, but when i feel awful (nauseous, food aversions to anything that even smelled like meat, violent morning…

WELCOME! The first 5 days suck, but then it gets easier I promise!!!!

Well, that and hunger pains

It's not every night. But I take ambien and it makes me hungry. And it lowers my willpower. So I save a bar for right before bed. It's only every now and then that I wake up growly.

Heavenhoney, we are all in it together

Hey, I went on vacation last april and didnt get back on until 40 lbs and almost a year later. But I have been back on plan for 35 days. I deserve a chip or something. I feel like I am in AA. . Hi...my name is staci and I like to chew things.... Everyone....* hi staci* I mean, seriously. Wanting to eat is normal. Lets stop…

4 lbs last week, 1 lb this week.

And wait until your dog eats a bar. It's unholy.

Oh my god. Thank you so much for eat least saying that it is not just me. I have to actually keep air freshener in my desk for emergencies.

12 months, lost 45 lbs, then regained it. 1 month, lost 10 lbs.

Well, I think that I feel better overall with miralax. Otherwise, I am really stinky gassy and backed up. Can't do that at work in my cube! This seems to really help. I ordered the digestive health stuff in my next order. But this seems to work well for me

.8 lbs this week. :/

Yes, i pretty much just eat the bars (so convenient) and my lean and green. C'est la vie.

Also, check your veggies. I stopped losing weight and it turned out that i was eating brussels sprouts, which were not an approved veggie. Stopped eating brussels sprouts, started losing weight. I drink 12-15 cups of water a day (i don't count what i drink overnight from the big bottle on my nightstand. sometimes i refill…

Well, let's see. if you lose 2 lbs a week, or 1lb a week, in 6 months you'll lose 25 lbs. That's what i tell myself. I have never had huge losses. I use an app called "Tactio Health" which shows not only weight loss, but the trend over time. It gives you a date when you'll meet your goal. I find it motivational. That said,…
