For the last two weeks I added dairy back into my life. The main form was milk. I was going to add yogurt but then I though, "I don't really like yogurt, so why?". I have tried both full milk and 2% and I think I will go with full milk for now. Just because it had more fat (same carb count though).
I really tried to get 25 NET Carbs a day but it is starting to get really difficult. Some days I really just don't fell hungry and can't stuff that much down my throat. But on others I was starving and ate above 25 carbs.
Anyway I have lost about 2,5 pounds this week. So I am going to move on to Rung 3...Nuts!
I have peanut butter (ingredients: Peanuts, Salt) and home made almond flour (ground up almonds) here, are those good choices to start with? Like with dairy I will start with having nuts 3 times a week (every other day) and then move to a more everyday plan to see how it effects me then.
And have I mentioned how much I am enjoying this WOE? I put on an old pair (pre-birthcontrol pill) jeans and I could button and zip them! Yeah I have a little muffin top on the sides but I fit into them. My pre-birth control pill weight was 150, and it is only 20.4 pounds away. Yay.
On the 19th I am going on vacation to Austria and my plan is if nuts don't effect me then I will just stay on Rung 3 for the 2 weeks I am gone since I will have no scale for myself or my food. If they do then I will drop back down to Rung 2 JUST for those 2 weeks and then start up when I am back with Rung 4. Is this a good plan? I can guesstimate things like veggies pretty well and they have measurements on the back if the milk cartons, but the others are a little more difficult and I don't want to get it to off with new foods.
*Edit - wishful thinking...20.4lbs not 10.4
**Edit again - removed the stats...they were miss leading.
