Hi everyone: I started doing the CALP plan a few weeks ago and haven't had much success. I've been a yo-yo dieter for about 10 years and things just continued to get worse. My most recent attempt was with those typical body building diets where you eat 5-6 times a day (balanced meals with very low fat). The more times I ate, the more I craved carbs until I thought I was going nuts! Anyway, when I read CALP I felt like the Hellers were talking about me! Since starting this WOE, the most amazing difference has been that I no longer have symptoms of hypoglycemia. I used to have to eat something before I went to the gym, and then I had to eat as soon as my workout was finished. Sometimes I couldn't make it home without eating something because I felt lightheaded, dizzy, and faint. Now, I feel real freedom because I can go to the gym whenever I want and I don't have to worry about food. No more symptoms!!! Unfortunately, the scale hasn't been as cooperative. I'm wondering if I'm eating too much at reward meals. I know they say that you should have a reward meal, not a binge, I'm not sure I know the difference anymore. So, I'm posting yesterday's plan and I hope some of you would give me some advice, thoughts, etc. I really appreciate any advice that you can offer.
