Default Re: At a loss... very upset

Hi there! I was looking at your menu- do you think maybe it could be the amount of cheese? I don't know, but I just noticed that you include cheese in every meal, and even as a snack. I too love cheese very much- but I try to eat it only once a day because I'm afraid I'll eat too much of it.

Also, forget the scale- How do your clothes fit? Do you feel lighter, slimmer, and better altogether. I know how you're feeling right now- I also gained on my 5th day of induction and I was sad too, but I love the way my clothes are fitting me better, and when I bend over to tie my shoes or get something off the floor, I don't feel that bothersome tummy anymore. That in itself is enough to keep my going. Have you tried using Ketostix to give you the phsychological assurance?

Just some thoughts- great job, and keep going- you will do it!!!
