Default Re: Stalls - food ok on previous attempts?

OH yes... oh my yes.

In 1997 when I initially did Akins so successfully, I think there might have been 2 or 3 bars, and then the powdered shake mix and that was it. They just started getting more products as I went into maintenance and I really just didn't care for much of what was out there.

In my failed attempts since, I've hit a wall any time I ate anything other than the premade shakes on a semi-regular basis. The bars and baking mixes were all bad for me. The muffins particularly... I think they tasted nasty anyway. So this time, I'm going without that stuff, though I do have 2 packs of the premade shakes in my refrigerator because a premade shake is better than a binge on something that's bad... sometimes a girl just needs chocolate.

Other than these foods, I haven't really seen any stalls that I can contribute to food intake. You can always experiment by not eating something you think might have caused a stall for a month or 6 weeks or so. If you continue to stall, it might not have been that thing. If the stall ends then after a while add it back and see what happened.
