Lisa32989: thanks for this. I wondered if it was that. I found your response to a similar question in another thread (slowly going through them!) and thought it was so well said that I came back to include it here:
'Our coaches also teach us that estrogen is stored in our fat so as we rapidly burn the fat for fuel, we release this estrogen, which adds to the problem. In addition, as the body acclimates to Ketosis, that can cause hot flashes (did for me for about 6-8 weeks)'
When I read about how 'precious' ketosis is, what it takes to get into it/ fallout of it...will make me think twice when I am tempted to cheat.
Thanks!
