I fell off the wagon 2 weeks ago...I had only lost 2.9 pounds, got discouraged and decided to eat any and all carbs, sugars, whatever I could think of to make myself feel better.  Yesterday I decided I couldn't do this anymore and decided to jump back on.  Astonishingly, I only gained back what I lost but I am back to square one.  I am cutting out all vegetables and anything that could be considered excess carbs such as the GG bread for at least 2 weeks.  I want to see a weight loss and I think the first time I did this I ate too many vegetable carbs as I was eating a chef salad every day for lunch and dinner.

G8orgirl  I did this myself not once but twice !!  :-[ :-[ But the thing that is the most important is that you get back on the FTS horse and hold on . I think I was doing the same thing eating too many carbs in my salad ,lettuce can add up.
We are so brainwashed into thinking that you can eat as many veggies as you want endless salad was what every DIET has told us .
 With the FTS way of life you have to reprogram your way of thinking some people can reprogram quickly others like myself   :P :P are  a little slower ,but what matters is now I got it .After 2 failures I FINALLY GOT IT !!! I am a slow loser but as long as I am a loser I will be fine .
 Its good you didnt gain more then you lost but you will probably just have to go thru the detox again to get it out of your system,but you will be fine .

Portion control --AND-- carb counts are BOTH important!!!

Part of what we're doing is getting used to eating reasonable portions and shrinking our stomachs rather than eating the super-sized ones that stretch our stomachs. A stretched stomach can cause a false sense of hunger.
Also, if we eat more than what our bodys' need, they will never have a chance to "turn on" the fat-burning mechanism (ketosis).

During the holidays, overeating (and not too many carbs) caused my weight loss to stall out cold.
