Okay, Ive had my fun, Time to get serious!

This AM I was surprised to find myself OUT of Ketosis!I guess I ate too much
yesterday, that is my fault I know, but Ive always had a fantasy of drinking
heavy cream and not gaining weight so I have overdone it the past few days
Ive been on Atkins/ Low Carb.
Im now ready to get serious.
{I have however kept up my meat/veggie consumption and water, vitamin and
benecol softgel capsule taking}
Can anyone give me a sample daily representative menu of what THEY eat?
Ill use that as a blueprint...
Im eating a salad with sliced homebaked chicken breast in it right now.. I
like a salad for breakfast better than eggs, eggs make me nauseous.
Although I do make a scrummy Eggs Florentine (buttered dish, squeezed out
spinach, eggs on top, generous layer of Parmesan Cheese, salt pepper, bake)
I think its all about portion control no matter what "diet" you are on.
THATS something I need to learn..
At least I havent had any chest pain since I started this WOE!
My brain feels good too!
So instruct me, mold me, guide me!???
BTW has anyone had any problem with stalls after eating Hot Wings (original
recipe, REAL butter etc) They are my favorite thing aside from a "BIG FAT
CHICKEN" (Preesi speak for a plain ole roasted chicken w/ crispy skin) The
BEST thing to do is drop unbreaded chicken breasts into the deep fryer and
dress THOSE with the hot wing dressin' , an appetizer becomes a meal!
Any help you can give me I'll adhere to....

If you are out of Ketosis you ate too many carbs, not too much cream.

Although you'd have to drink quite a bit of cream to get out of ketosis
(if that's all you had).

Well, I was in almost PURPLE at 3:00 pm, All I had after that was 2 chicken
breasts, some romaine lettuce, 2 cups of a mix of Italian cut green beans
and yellow squash and 2 Tablespoons of creamcheese w/ Splenda and 1 large SF
PB Cup and some Heavy Cream! Oh and that 1/2 cup of Hoods!

Anyone care to critique that and stomp my visions of happiness into the
ground???
Maybe it was the Splenda Packettes? I got 2 gallons of that Natures Flavors
in the pantry!?

I'd suggest that you hold off on the SF stuff until you get the WOE working
for you. Eat real foods instead.

Cut them and see. However, it is not uncommon to be in and out of
ketosis...don't worry about ketosis so much...worry about making good LC
choices.

Consider using fitday.com too.

I seriously drank cream (with splenda and davinci and a bit watered down)
the entire time I lost over 50 pounds, almost daily. I think my body liked
the additional fat I was giving it. Also stayed in ketosis with no
problems.
Best of luck Preesi and my hubby wants to know when we get new pics LOL
Glad to see you back!

Why do you think you were "out of ketosis"?
One ketostix test that's not dark purple means nothing.
Some people lose weight without NEVER showing on the stix.
Light pink/dark purple....doesn't mean much as far as weight loss is concerned.
The color is governed by too many factors.
Go by your WEEKLY weight loss and your changing measurements, not by the color
on the stix.
