Vacation keto reversal experiment and re-loss in progress


(Deb) #1

I went on vacation from 7/28-8/6, and decided to to a massive refueling/refeed and ate like a total wanton crazy person! Pizza, fast food, ice cream , you name allthe bad stuff…I did it! And, oh, it was good! But I felt like crap when it was over!

Anyway…it was an experiment to see if I could re-lose the fat as easily as I had been or if I had set myself back a great bit.
Happy to say…nope! I was 133 before I left…145 when I got back 6 days later…and 136 this morning…eating up to and slightly over my metabolic deficit.

You’re lucky, I’m jealous :grinning:. If I did that, it’s not at the end of the vacation that I’d feel like crap, it’s the day after the 1st cheat. And I’d probably blow up like a balloon. Insulin resistance is no joke :unamused:.

Wait. You gained 12 pounds in one week??? Whoa!!
You are the first person I’ve seen on here that weighs like me. I first weighed 139 and my goal is 125. I’ve been stuck at 130 for 4 weeks!! Any suggestions?
My fear is going off this and going right back to where I was…
