Sorry to hear that, although kudos for staying OP during a tough time. Good luck on the HW. I put off grading, etc., till a gew hours ago. This weekend just went too quickly! However, I can handle 34 more days!!!

One leg at a time!"...My son just stared blankly at me so I said, "Just start dear." He didn't really appreciate his ol' granpappy I guess :p

This made my night! Kids are so funny. How old is your son?

Let me expand. I really enjoy the Big Mac in a Bowl for dinner (so does my husband) but I feel like every time we have it my calories for the day inch up towards 1000 (I weigh and measure everything I eat, so I know I'm not eating too much of it). My net carbs is still around the 30g mark, though. Will a couple of days of 1000 calories a week contribute to a stall?
(And I cannot believe I'm even asking about 1000 calories in a day! I used to eat or more that in a sitting!!)

Some of the wise veterans on here say that varying those calorie days can help keep your body confused and prevent going into that starvation mode, so it might help prevent a stall! I just wouldn't make it a nightly staple.
Hope everyone is having a super weekend! Hubby made some delish shrimp primavera (his name for it) for din tonight...and there are leftovers for tomorrow! He sauteed the shrimp with garlic, grapeseed oil, lemon, basil, then tossed it with cooked broccoli, zucchini, and a little bit of chopped tomato. Soooo good! It does not feel like diet food at all!
