Thanks for the tips, everyone. LadyBelle's 'detox' idea is what I had in mind, although I may extend it for 2 weeks as Hilary suggested. I like the idea of considering myself in pre-maintenance after that period, but following the carb ladder rather than thinking "Ha! I'm in pre-maintenance! I can eat all sorts of things now." (That's what I would do normally, I'm afraid.) It'll be nice to get back to basics.

shaerat, I would love to be your buddy. I'll post in your journal soon.

If anyone else has suggestions for me between now & Monday, bring 'em on!
