Well so far the reintroduction has been going well. I think the only snag was that strawberries have a little too much sugar to add right now but otherwise OK. Apples and pears are awesome! (and yummy!) Haven't weighed in yet - I guess that will be the true test - if I continue to lose weight after Phase 1 - although I realize it will be at a much slower pace. Which honestly as long as the number on the scale goes down and not up I'm fine with that!
Remember, I'm only adding in 1 good carb per day and 1 whole fruit per day for the first 7 days of phase 2 so my body can get used to the added sugars (and fiber!) - so here goes....

Notes: So no weight loss today but that's OK - at least no weight gain! I'm hoping the next weight in will reflect at least a pound but we will see. It says if the weight loss stalls to slow down on the reintroduction of carbs and fruits so if by Sunday i haven't lost more I'll slow it down. Maybe time to up my exercise too.

Notes: I'm super swollen today ugh. ever since I had that taco meat on my salad on Tuesday my IBS has been kicking up. must be the grease in it ugh. Today I think i feel the worst bleh. Tomorrow is a Thanksgiving celebration at work - I think I'm just going to bring in my own lunch and fore go the whole thing! too much temptation! bad enough I'm going to have that same temptation on thanksgiving itself. and with not feeling well I'm more susceptible to cheat so i think I'll steer clear. if my tummy is still rotten tonight i think I'll just have an omelet for dinner.
(3pm) feeling a little better-not as swollen but still really tired. Gonna go home and relax a bit but make sure I do a workout!
