Sorry I just won't give up my dairy even tho I am lactose intolerant. I just take my lactaid and continue to enjoy it.

Topic: Any of you do Stillman's?
I'm cutting dairy out of my diet because i'm becoming lactose intolerant...which will kind of make my diet almost like Stillman's...do any of you follow this? Weight loss, i've read,  is much more rapid.

Thanks for the encouragement.  A few days, I only wish.  I'm still working through an inflamatory reaction from the summer. 

Praying its just one pound and I have not started a new upward trend.  That 3500 cal = a pound of fat equation does not work for us 'metabolically challenged' folks.     Not even post op and low carb.

I must say that if I Were to taste it and then come up with a name for the flavor, it would NOT be cookies n' cream. There is no "cookie" to be found. I guess it's really just the cream part. ut, IMO, it's much yummier than plain chocolate or vanilla.

I have heard of Isopure Zero Carb cookies n' cream but I never had it.  Maybe I'll get some from the Vitamin Shoppe since I can return it if I don't like it.

 Well, I've had that happen too -- Obviously it's not the calories or the carbs, because you cannot have consumed a full 3,500 calories in bourbon!  (Or, if you have, you've got bigger problems than just food management LOL).

I think it's the inflammation caused elsewhere, and I would guess that this inflammatory weight gain would, in fact, wash away in a few days.  Take heart!  All will be fine!  Just stick to your better WOE, and you'll be fine!

Or, is it that I betrayed me with that bourbon. 

Calories, carbs, ratios perfect.  Plenty of water too.  Then I had a drink last night.   Just the one.  Up a full pound this morning.

A reminder that low carb does not like alcohol.  No more booze for me.  If only that pound would come off as easily as it came on.  Never in my universe.  Its like the immediate fluid retention is just a place holder for the comming fat. 

Oh, what have I done to me!

Congrats on induction!    As another slow looser I appreciate what a 1.7 lb loss in a week means to you.  Keep doing what you're doing.
