Hi bigdaddi,
Congrats on your loss. I wonder if it wasn't so much that you cheated and it made you lose, but that you ate a nice really big meal. What I am getting at is that sometimes I have found I cut back too much on calories and carbs wanting to lose weight and that just slows me down. Then I'll go out to Ryan's for dinner (all you can eat steak, bbq, and salad bar) and eat lc but like a pig and I'll lose weight the next day. Drives dh crazy! My reasoning is that without even realizing it, I may have cut back too much causing my body to hold on thinking a famine is going on and then when I really pig out but on legal lc stuff I lose a lot fast because my body says ok, no famine or distress so lets dump this extra fat! Don't know if it is true or not but that has happened several times for me. Whatever the reason for your loss YEAH and enjoy it.
Marie
