General Discussion / I need some feedback
« on: March 08, 2013, 02:59:05 PM »
Hi everyone.  I'm going to try and keep this simple.  Sometimes I ramble  (apology in advance :Dweight loss has been pretty good.  Last Sunday, it stalled.  that lasted until Wednesday.  I reread Doug's book and read a lot on the forum here.  I went back over what I had been eating and realized that I was still not drinking enough water, nor was I actually eating enough food.  I thought, that's crazy.  I should still be losing weight.  Anyway, I also had not been taking my multi vitamin.  So Wed. night, I started increasing my water, ate a little more and took a vitamin.  (mulit)  the next day the weight was down.  cool.  I've been keeping that up everyday.  For the last two days, I have had a huge dizzy spell.  I never have those.  Well, can't say that anymore lol.  But it's not about the weight for me anymore.  It's about my health.   I was sitting down when the dizziness started and the room just rocked for about a solid minute.  (that's a long minute when that happens).  Also slight pain in the gallbladder area.  That went away.  it's the dizzy spells that are concerning me.  Any advice?  has anyone else had this?  Thanks for any input.  It's very much appreciated.  Not expecting medical advice, just seeing if anyone knows of any reason why this could be happening, if due to anything lacking that I should be taking in.  :)

Lean On My Shoulder / Is there such a thing as too low in carbs?
« on: February 22, 2013, 08:02:23 PM »
Hi everyone.  I  usually don't post, but read a lot.  However, I did post a question the other day and it might have been in the wrong place.  Anyway, I can't thank you enough Doug for your book!!!  I've lost 13 lbs in 10 days!! woo hoo  My question is this.  As I've gone over what I've been eating each day, my carb count is around 15-17 per day.  I know your book says around 20.  I just want to make sure I'm not doing it wrong.  I got your book and read it until the end.  Then I went into my kitchen and cleaned it out!  That was the best thing i've ever done.  The sugar detox ended a couple of days ago and I have tons of energy I thought I'd never have again!  :)  Anyone that can help me with this question, it is much appreciated.

Hi!  I'm new to FTS for about one week now.  I'm loving how the weight is falling off!  It's actually IS easy.  Thank you for writing such a wonderful book.  My husband and 19 yr old son are eating this way as well.  I'm still in shock over that.  What I need help with is this.  I started keeping track of my carb intake, and I've noticed that I'm eating about 15 to 17 carbs a day.  Is there such a thing as too low?   I mean, I'm losing pretty quickly, but I want to be sure that I'm doing this the right way from the start.  If I google this information, there is information about this way of eating as being unhealthy.  Which just cannot be true.  You are all surviving.  So I'd rather just get it from the ones who know.  Any help is appreciated, thank you!
