Morning all. The last few days I have felt so bloated and gassy. When I wake up I'm starving. Not sure what's going on. I did eat out several times over the weekend so I'm beginning to think I kicked myself out of ketosis
I didn't eat off plan but I did have a drink. And of course prepared foods are always so hard to judge. They could have slipped some butter or something in.
I saw others already spoke about butter not kicking you out of ketosis. Fats won't do it but carbs will. If you've been eating out, there are likely hidden carbs in something. That could be causing the gas/bloat also.

No carbs in butter. It is a fat.

You are too!!!!
Hi All...been "offline" more than on this week...but have been trying to keep up...SOO much happening! Most of it good I'm glad to see.
Happy Anniversary to Schenectedy...and congrats on your wt. loss AND the house plans!
Ruth Ann...you are doing great holding steady...and we all agree...the prize is already yours for hanging in there! The 100 lb mark WILL come...to both you AND Lisa.
Seems the weather had a fun time keeping most of the south in an uproar this week...glad that's over for everyone, but those impacted are surely even gladder!! We may hit 40 degrees here on Saturday...that would be amazing! Layers of snow have been around since before Christmas...READY..be gone with it!! Groundhog day is approaching...can spring be far behind??
Missing the time to chat with y'all.. but finally have our family vac 90% booked...as it turns out my sisters are planning a "Sisters" vac in the same area we are traveling to with a start date a few days after we were scheduled to leave. So looks like I'm going to get 18 days, back to back in the Caribbean in June. My husband and I decided we'd stay until they arrive...then he will return home and I will go to the other resort for another week! Only have 1 bathing suit that still fit back in September...so think I'm going to need more than 1 for almost 3 weeks!
Looking forward to getting caught up on the reading here....

nola, maybe you're headed for a nice loss with the hunger (butter doesn't have carbs so I wouldn't worry about it. It's extra fat, not totally ideal, but nothing to really worry over if it's not an everyday thing.) I get random hunger too- usually I'm fine, but every so often I'm 90% of the way to gnawing off an arm. The other night I had a hot chocolate packet, which was my 4th of the day but I figured it was better than eating something off plan, which I felt tempted to do because of my hunger. Just keep plugging away, hopefully tomorrow will be easier!

which is better the IP Pancakes or the pancakes made from crispy cereal? gonna buy more food tomorrow I want some pancakes. YUM
I think the Pancakes are restricted, so making pancakes out of the cereal will save you a restricted. I never had the pancakes, but loved the cereal made into pancakes with the WF syrup. I actually liked the cereal as cereal too!

Yall are talking about carbs so I thought I'd jump in and share what i've been packet hacking. I'm going to go post it in the recipe thread but it'll get seen by more here and stored there!
*Acquired this recipe from the Incredible Weight Loss Center*
Artisan Bread
Potato Puree
1 egg
1tsp olive oil
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 ounces of water
seasoning to taste ie: garlic powder, basil, oregano, etc
*packet already has seasoning so be careful not to over-season!
preheat to 350, spray with pam and spread thin. bake for 20 mins or brown and toasty. So delish!

Ems - I've found that bread works best if baked in a glass pie plate. It doesn't seem to stick near as much as using metal.
Im just curious, does anyone know if exercising will knock you out of ketosis? I know it seems silly, but up until the past few days Ive been getting a dark purple on my ketosis sticks, and now im showing no ketons, the only thing i can possibly think of is the exercising ive been doing?
Im doing T25 by Shaun T.
I know there's a lot of question whether or not intense exercise should be done, but the place my coach is located, they also have personal training there and do beachbodies Insanity (shaun t) and I had asked if i could do that training while on this diet and she said I could as long as I added an extra packet daily. Shes now out of town for surgery, so i cant get a hold of her to ask

Congratulations, so happy for you!
