LV'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
Its been awhile since I begrudgingly accepted my disordered eating issues. One thing I realized fairly quickly is that when I am frustrated by my inability to lose weight my food issues take over. Unlike so many, I have mastered eating bad while staying good. Translation: I can get all my protein; stay at maintenance calories for a person fifteen to twenty pounds lighter than I; and do it all while living on junk food or eating compulsively. I can't hide from myself.
Today is day four back to low carb and day one of phase two, my fast. So far so good but its still early. Today and tomorrow will likely be the hardest but its only 3-5 days before I move on to phase three. This is a modified fast so I do get five small meals. Hopefully the fat burn will kick in during the three to five day period. My ketostix are at the ready.

I'm doing pretty good right now. Glad you are working your program. I never mastered bad eating and keeping within maintenance calories, something I need usually comes up short. I know thats a good thing. I did master lying to myself about portion size. However things are changing this time around. I think my original mindset is back. I want to lose.
Best of success to us all.
