Why in the world would you stay on phase 1 for a month? Send a list of what you eat all day and the amount of excercise you do. You need to change the way you think about it. "I don't know how much longer I can do this diet" this isn't a diet. You must completely change the way you eat for the rest of your life. That is why you are doing this. No one can live always being on a diet. It doesn't work. Send the list of what you eat and lets see what is going on.

Rethinking this whole thing......errrrrrr

I don't know how much longer I can do this diet. I've been on phase 1 for a month or so, and nothing has happened, except that I"m very tired, going home every night and falling asleep, which can NOT help me lose weight. And today, my stomach is swelled up so big I seriously look like I'm about 5 months pregnant. And I think that's from the yogurt Im' eating. Now, I would cut the yogurt out, but I hate milk and yogurt is my only dairy source. I think the amount of carbs that I'm getting in this diet are messing with me. Doesn't matter if they're good carbs, they're running me down. I"m hypoglaucemic and very sensitive to carbs. Especially since I was on Atkins for over a year, my body is just not adjusting to the carbs I'm getting in this diet. Someone please tell me what to do............and do it ASAP before my gut explodes......pleaaasssseeeee

We aren't supposed to go more than two weeks on phase 1. How many

carbs are you taking in per day? With no fruits and no grains, I

can't imagine you are taking in many. I'm hypoglycemic, too, and

complex carbs have never bothered me.

Because I"ve gained weight instead of losing it that's why.

That's where you are wrong. I know what's good for me and I know how my body reacts to things. I have been very serious about what I eat and have been for years.

I posted yesterday the things I was eating to and we decided everything was okay except for adding more vegetables, which I just said I cannot add more because of the way that the carbs make me feel. And it is a diet. The definition of diet is what someone eats. What you eat is your diet. Whether it's good or bad, it's your diet. Now, can anyone help me with the SERIOUS bloating and the lack of energy and sleepiness?? I know it can't be withdrawls from carbs and sugar and bread bc my body is used to not having those. I think I've put too much back in.

I would think by now that you should be having a ton more energy and I have no idea what the bloating it from....might be time to see the doctor and see what's up.....maybe a thyroid problem....or even an allergic reaction to something your eating daily...for dairy try cheese and not yogert maybe.

Well with me feeling the way that I do with the amount of carbs that I'm getting from dairy and vegetables in this diet, I sure won't move into phase 2 and add more. It may not be a lot, but it's wearing on me. Or something else is bc I'm tired!!! And they feel just like hypoglaucemic spells, the kinds I get from eating too much sugar. I have low carbed and low sugar for years and it has always helped me to feel better and not to have these spells. I watch closely what I eat bc I know how I'm going to feel if I get any carbs or sugar in a high amount. I eat my snacks every day. I never had this problem when i was restricting carbs on Atkins, so I guess even the good carbs, I can't eat.ann wrote:

Maybe you do need to add WW bread or WW pasta or Brown Rice for a few days...add just 1 of them for a few days and see what happens.

Yeah that's what I thought too. I started out with energy and it's gone downhill. I think the bloating is a lactose thing. Can we drink/eat Lactaid milk on this diet?? And I apologize if it sounds like I was jumping at you. That's another thing I'm feelign lately is serious grumpiness and then the bloating is not helping my mood and the lack of sleep either! I apologize"L.S" wrote:

I am really stumped by this post from Misty.. I really have a gut feeling the protein is causing her the ho hums... even if she did not experience this before when on Atkins.. but the bloating could be possibly be fiber related...

Please note I am JUST guessing here... In the end I agree with Lucienne to see your doctor and bring along a sheet with your daily food logged..

Misty, it's easy to see why you're frustrated. I agree that you

should take a log of what you've eaten and go to your doctor. I

would be interested in what he/she has to say.

Why in the world would

you stay on phase 1 for a month?

> Because I " ve gained weight instead of losing it that's why.

>

> Send a list of what you eat all day and the amount of excercise

you do. You need to change the way you think about it. " I don't know

how much longer I can do this diet " this isn't a diet. You must

completely change the way you eat for the rest of your life. That is

why you are doing this. No one can live always being on a diet. It

doesn't work. Send the list of what you eat and lets see what is

going on.

>

> That's where you are wrong. I know what's good for me and I know

how my body reacts to things. I have been very serious about what I

eat and have been for years.

>

> I posted yesterday the things I was eating to and we decided

everything was okay except for adding more vegetables, which I just

said I cannot add more because of the way that the carbs make me

feel. And it is a diet. The definition of diet is what someone

eats. What you eat is your diet. Whether it's good or bad, it's

your diet. Now, can anyone help me with the SERIOUS bloating and

the lack of energy and sleepiness?? I know it can't be withdrawls

from carbs and sugar and bread bc my body is used to not having

those. I think I've put too much back in.

>

> Rethinking this whole

thing......errrrrrr
