If you're lactose intollerant you might also have to beware of cream and butter. I used to have the problem from just cream in my coffee. Since starting on thie WOE I have been able to digest lactose alot better and eat cream, cream cheese and cheese, etc without taking the lactaid.

I can whole-heartedly agree. Carbo Lite jelly beans taste great, but OMG! I was glad there were no matches or flames around. They are almost, well they are, all sugar alcohol. I had the runs, and gassy. Thought I was going to be gassy, and well, SURPRISE!

i haven't noticed any stinky farts, but when i cut my carbs from really high to 20, i KNOW i'm in ketosis because my breath smells so bad i can smell it through my nose. it's embarrasing. i blame it on my shoes. anyway, i know that wasn't much help...just keep air freshener with you and spray every time...that's what my roomates and i did...hmm. maybe i should keep air freshener with me when mom goes to the bathroom and i have to walk in and use it after her...

Nope, my sniffer works just fine! I caught the first wiffs of ketones burning yesterday. Sorry Dean, you're just going to have to take my word for it...my farts don't stink (unless I cheat).

Talking yer smelly!

Sounds like yer body is working overtime!! It's getting ready to flush you out! Getting rid of all that nasty fat!!!
Keep up the plan!! You can do it!

p.s. hold your nose, clothes pins, etc. Incense, nows there's the answer! Tell your boyfriend that you will look absolutely fabulous soon, real soon! And once he sees you in that bikini, he'll forget all about your stinky farts!! hee hee

Since I started this WOE, the opposite has happened. I used to let out stinky ones all the time, now I only fart when I eat sugar alcohols. I'm enjoying this a lot!!!
