Okay, so I have been 14 days on P3 and have been at the exact same weight for the last 10 of the 14 days (only 1 lb over LDW weight). Can I move on to P4 since it appears that I have stabilized or do I have to keep going one more week? I eat all kinds of meat, tons of cheese, almonds, milk every single day and the scale does not even move by ounces. Any thoughts would be appreciated since I don't want to move on and ruin all my hard work, but would love to eat oatmeal for breakfast again.
I'd stay in P3 for the full 3 weeks, so your weight can "cement" itself. It takes 3 weeks for your body to recognize your new weight, from what I understand.
If my weight stays the same in P3 right now, I may never do another round again. because I am at my goal weight. I only did one round. does this just go on forever, or do I do a p4 too? I will never eat sugar again, that is my mindset now, I'll just take it day by day of course. I don't want to eat wheat either.
I am just so not used to eating fats and protein/veggies. I have never been on any kind of low carb Atkins diet or anything, I think that is why it all feels so awkward so far in P3, I can see the merit in it, and I will most likely acheive the good results, hallelujah! but it is still so un natural for me.
Hello all! I have been eating at about 1500 cals a day or so and my proteins have been around 100grams each day. so far I have been doing just fine and staying about .5 pound above my weight.... well tonight I went a lil overboard and ate 4 tbs of natural pb and 1.5 apples at about 8;45...I usually try not to eat after 6-7 anyway, that put me about 2000 cals for the day. Do you think that this was a HUGE no no? I hope that my scales aren't up tomorrow!!!
thanks Nena, I eat my protein throughout the day in the form of eggs, cheese, meat and milk usually , however yesterday I got a lot from PB...I nearly had 150 grams of protein overall...
I was up this morning at about 1.4 pounds from my regular weight but I hadn't had a BM yesterday so I had a very small BM ( sorry if TMI) and was down to just 1 pound over, I am still up a lil but I think that if I am able to have another BM today that will help a lot and I am going to try to stick to proteins and fat today and skip the fruit and nuts which is where my carbs come from.... thanks for your reply!
