First, congratulations on recognizing what your body is reacting to. You're already ahead of the game, so be proud of yourself.

Might be very wise to stay away from the trigger foods. I know I absolutely cannot have any of those low impact carb sweets, ice cream, etc. I simply cannot stop once I start.

Yes, it can happen easily. I went off the program for about 6 weeks, and I've gained back 10 pounds and some of the inches. And I felt icky to boot.

The holidays will be tough for us all, but we can do it!

Hugs,
Shirley
