Kiss???
 

I am considering a KISS way of eating for a week to see if I have any food intolerances. I have caught bits and pieces here and there and this is what I have gathered from it:

- basically, eliminate dairy (except eggs), AS, and anything processed.

My questions are:

1) Are frozen vegies ok?
2) What about vinegar ( I love homemade pickled vegies)
3) I haven't seen "yay" or "nay" concerning melons and berries??

Thank-you for any help with this. I am in a 2 month stall, and though I now realize my BFL exercise regime may be covering some fat loss, I am struggling mentally with the idea that I have done my absolute best and not moved out of my 5lb "bubble" for over two months. I am beginning to wonder if my "KETO" shakes (which I started drinking when I started BFL) are a problem?

Everyone who KISSES seems to do it a little bit differently, but these links should help you out.

I had never heard of the KISS thing until now...and as far as I can tell, I actually had been doing it without even realizing it. My only no-no is drinking diet sodas which have the artificial sweetners in it and my sugar-free jello that i have on occassion.

I didn't see no yays or nays on the frozen vegies...personnally, I eat them in very small amounts and so far I haven't had any problems.

Thanks Karen!
 

The links were just what I needed! The 3rd link you provided works well to nsmith's post concerning KISS. The links in nsmith's post, however, were no longer valid. (Just incase someone else is looking for the same info. :) )

I am a little leary, yet excited to try this for a week or two. My main concern is making a homemade salad dressing, for my daily salads. I was pleased to learn that vinegar is allowed for some pickled vegies, then I realized that the recipe calls for 2/3 c. sugar. No as, no pickled vegies :( I will consider making a batch when/if I can reintroduce as back into my every day eating.

Using the word KISS can be very confusing by the way. There's a high-carb diet book out there titled KISS.

Too right Wa'il and I have it on my book shelf. The Kiwi KISS Diet = Keep It Simple and Succeed.
Its by a N.Z'er Carolyn Gibson and she runs weekly meetings very like WW. I also have the cookbook, like you say high in carbs, I could never stick to plan longer than 5 days :rolleyes:

Re: Thanks Karen!
 

I did this for a little over a week and it was wonderful - it's a bit daunting and it does take some serious planning but it's really worth it in the end.

Can't Find Information
 

I've done several searches, both on this forum and on the web, and I can't seem to find any information about this. Does anyone know of anywhere else I can find anything? Thanks!

I have been KISSing all week. I plan to KISS on weekdays and go back to my regular Atkins OWL WOE for the weekend. I think it will speed my weight loss along. I have lost 1 1/2 lbs in 3 days... so I am pretty pleased with the results.
