[getskinny]

You are right toosweet, when I am down 60 lbs they will be begging to know my secret, rolling my eyes  "FTS" &  walk away. Revenge is going to be skinny
Haha

Thanks Umpa

Keeping track in the best way to know  You are doing a great job Faith!  Your body could just be adjusting too.  Hang in there

Thanks TooSweet and you are right.  Have been eating to many nuts but by this afternoon I was back in ketosis.  I keep track with CarbMaster and it does make a difference to know what your are putting in your mouth.

Hi Faith, here's an idea for you..... put up a white board at work in the eating area and keep track of your weight loss publicly for all your co-workers to see. Leave the FTS book in the room on a table below the white board welcoming anyone to read 

We are ALL so proud of you!!!!!!!!!

[mouseissue]

Hooray, Faith!

Going in and out of ketosis is normal.

As we lose weight, our bodies are doing a lot of things, biochemically.
So just because you may not show ketosis at any given time, does not mean your not still moving.

However, if you stop losing size and weight for three or more weeks, it's time to closely examine what you're eating.
And remember, sweets are ALWAYS the first to go!

Wow Faith! You are doing great!!  I remember my first few weeks on FTS.   One guy at my office made fun of me calling me "sugar free Jan".   He doesn't say that anymore!  ha ha  Hang in there!!  This is the only thing that has really worked for me.

Hi 
Thanks for the idea's everyone. I had one of those busy weeks but happy to say stuck to FTS.  Today we had a potluck and I had some  kale salad, which was wonderful but upset my stomach. I haven't been hungry and I didn't realize how many  sweets are  brought into my office. The past 2 weeks sweets every day. I have to say didn't touch anything. I would imagine teaspoon of sugar per piece. It was really gross.

I actually see people eating sugar when they eat sweets grosses me out!

Hi, Faith!

A teaspoon of sugar has 4.2 grams net carbs.
My guess is that each of those "sweets" had at least TABLESPOONS of sugar!

Tablespoons of sugar, yuck I am glad I stayed away from all that.
Makes me smile when I am told that I going to get sick by following WOE  as they are eating a low fat frozen packaged lunch.  Who is going to be sick, not me
