For the most part my weight is very stable and I am realizing some shifting in the inches over the past 2 weeks..........adding cocoa crack and lemon mousse but probably not applying correctly as am using as a "snack". Think I need to move the CC into a regular meal spot either BAB, or Dinner meal???? Your thoughts???

I think that having your CC with a meal is the choice way to do it, since you aren't to snack. I have had CC with BAB, and it was tasty!

Hi!
I will start the Leptin reset on Monday June 25! We are spending the week out of town with my parents and will be eating out the entire time so I want to start on Monday with the LR

I will do as much research as I have time for tomorrow before we leave so I best check for Mondays menu now LOL

Can we eat bacon or pork chops on the LR?? Or is it very lean meat and eggs only?

I will read as much as I can tonight as well before heading to bed, but if I know the answer to Monday mornings' Big breakfast now...it will help a ton. I happen to have eggs, bacon and pork chops here already and would not have to go to the store at 6 am on Monday LOL I am usually up by then and want to make the 30 minute window~~~~~~ If no to the bacon and chops, would I just have eggs then?

I will get the rest of the system by reading through the posts!
Thank you!

Pork Chops, butter & bacon are all fine on the Reset. At first it was hard for me to eat first thing in the morning as I was never a breakfast eater. Then after a few months, I couldn't imagine going without it. Then after 4 months, I started to not want such a big breakfast anymore. I had the signs of Leptin Sensitivity so I changed my eating a bit by reducing my breakfast protein and upping my supper fat & protein.

If you like bacon, WellnessMeats.com sells a sugar-free/nitrate-free bacon that is wonderful. You can never have enough nitrate-free bacon on the reset!!

WOW! This sounds more like the dream lifestyle food! LOL

I always buy the nitrite/nitrate free bacon but EVERY store around here carries that and most of them have sugar listed in the ingredients I have used one organic but still says less than 2% sugar yada yada. Lists palm sugar as the last ingredient so I am bummed. Thank you for the link! I will check that out and get some ordered then! We went to Costco this weekend b/c I read they carry a no sugar cured bacon, but ours does not have it, at least not right now.

I will be ok with eating early I think.....it is just the amount that I will struggle with at first! 2 eggs do me in, but I can eat 2 thin cut pork chops with ease! LOL Go figure. I will HAVE to check myself with the bacon though b/c I could *easily* eat 8 slices of *that*! I will be happy with 2 slices, however since before HCG and Leptin reset I thought that bacon would only be for special occasions like my birthday! LOL So, once per week for chops or bacon is OK or is twice per week OK?

I love fish as well and will be eating a lot of fish!

It is soooo difficult to believe that I could have shrimp/scallops with bacon and cooked in butter!!?? Scampi is one of my favorites as well as scallops and I only had them once or twice per year because of the butter LOL I know there was always a pattern to my not losing as much as I thought I should while eating ONLY lean everything. I did not eat low fat because I knew about sugar...I just avoided high fat foods.........and never lost or felt super energetic as I wanted.

I really really hope I can eat this way without gaining and am sooo afraid to begin! Did you ever feel that way? Sounds like I can start this on Saturday while out of town then! Wow, this will make choosing a restaurant soooo much easier on us all

Thank you so much again, and sorry for my loooong reply!

When you mention eating 4 eggs, do you mean 4 WHOLE eggs, or the 1 whole egg and 3 egg whites like in P2???

I have whole eggs, personally. Some of my BABs have been 4 eggs with a steak and salsa. I know that CW says too much egg equals high cholesterol, but that's just wrong, at least in my case. Prior to HCG and Paleo/Primal eating (along with the LRx), I was at 205 total cholesterol, now I am at 170 total, and I eat A LOT of eggs!
In the end, just do what feels best!
