I find reading all kinds of posts here on the forum, success stories, journals all help me to stick on plan. If you happen to have a friend who is LCing, call them!!!

Also, make sure you're eating a satisfying, filling meal at breakfast, lunch and dinner, and make sure you're drinking your water. If you go to pick, consciously STOP yourself. If you've already put it in your mouth -- spit it out!

When I'm tempted to cheat (and I have given in to the temptation, believe me ), I ask myself -- "is it worth it? That bit of food kicking me out of ketosis, possibly derailing me for who knows how long?" and the answer is 99 times out of 100 -- NO!!!!

Good luck to you and keep coming back to the forum and reading!
