Day three! I just went out and bought some ketostix, and did NOT get any colour, so I guess I'm not "there" yet. It might be because I've had a lot to drink today, but we shall see - I *think* I'm counting my carbs right and getting close to that "20" without going over :-) I have lost 6 pounds, but I'm sure it's probably mostly water at this point, but still nice to see. I just had some garlic-butter mushrooms - YUM! But one cup sure cooks down, doesn't it? I was also shocked at the carb value of brussels sprouts! They are on the "up to one cup a day" list, but at 7.6 carbs for 6 of the little guys, they're pretty "expensive".

Way to go! Its so funny. we must be on the same wavelength. I was just wondering how you were doing/. You're doing WWWWAAAAYYYY better than me! I went down 2 lbs and was psyched about that. I have cheated a bit, tho :( But hey, 2 lbs is 2 lbs.

6 lbs is great!! How are you feeling? I'm feeling much more energized...no more headaches!

Keep up the good work. We'll stay in touch!

Dawn

Yeah, I'm feeling better than yesterday. I don't know if I'm really energetic yet, but yesterday I had a KILLER headache, and I was feeling grumpy and out-of-sorts. Today is much better. Keep it up - 2 pounds is 2 pounds!!
