Hi all,

Well, I started LCing last week, but I fell off after 2 days... . I am trying to do this right, but at night for some reason I start to crave milk or doritos (two things I hardly ever ate before). I give in, but count the chips and measure the milk, and basically, even though I am supposed to be under 20g I am staying under 50g a day. I went into ketosis the first day on this WOE.

Is is POSSIBLE to loose 8lbs the first day? I weighed myself the first day at 253 and then the second day at 245lbs. I weighed at the same time of day and on an empty stomach. Mostly water weight, but a week later, and with light cheating, still at 245lbs.

Sunday night I went out and one of my friends whom I haven't seen for a couple of weeks noticed that I looked better and had way more energy. Whatever happens and if I don't follow by the letter, I will take Dr. Atkin's ideas to heart. I don't want to die young!!! My aunt is 57 and just had a heart attack.

well, that is my thread of consciousness for now.
