Hey everyone,
I am in my 8th week of IP now and I've lost 23 lbs. I have lots more to go but I seem to have hit a small plateau. I only lost about 1.5 to 2 lbs the past 2 weeks. My coach seemed concerned and asked that I only do non-restricteds for a week and see what happened. I did that, also had all of my allowed veggies, oil, water, and salt, and still only lost 2 lbs. So the next thing that she recommended was to have a cheat day to "jump start" my system to burning well again. I'm a little concerned about that.
I've been doing so well experimenting with new veggies and recipes, and I haven't had any carb cravings. So I'm afraid if I do this cheat day that my carb-loving monster might raise its ugly head again. But also I'm curious if anyone has done this and had it worked for them? And if you did, did you have more carbs than sugar or an even balance of both?
I want to get back on track, but don't want to derail a good thing in the process. Any advice you guys have will be greatly appreciated.
