Morning Kensy, time for an audit on what you're eating if you haven't lost for 2 weeks now. Carb Creep maybe?

 

[KensyLo]

now that i checked this morning i have lost almost a pound last week..so basically i didn't lose much for one week, but now i'm back on track.

p.s: honestly, i haven't been eating enough veggies i think, last week was HECTIC so yeah couldn't plan my meals properly..now i am. I think I'll be about 2 pounds lighters by next monday or so (i hope!)

Atkins bars can sometimes be SO addictive..thats why i dont keep them at home all the time...how many of the bars can you approx have in one week? one bar is mostly between 3-3.5 net carbs (one of them is 3.7 and its YUM)

My recommendation on bars.....is max of one per week and pref less!

 

[Jim]

Morning Kensy, I know the bars are convenient but you need your 3 mugs chopped green leag veggies a day.

 

[KensyLo]

Awwhhh sucks man. I love 'em sooo much. Anyway, I'll try to cut down on them. I think I usually have about 2 or 3 a week. Plus I only have them on the way to the gym haha.

SO! Another fantastic tasting cake I made for a friend of mom:
It's a strawberry mascarpone cake with a hard crust...people said it to be YUM YUM

ENJOY

Morning Kensy, that's some cake, I don't know how you can bake like that and not resist.

 

[KensyLo]

^ haha yes, proud that i can now. I've learned it over the past few cakes

 

[nevadiva]

[KensyLo]

omg omg I'm soo close to my goal! After having reached my goal, I will be about 22 pounds lighter since January. wow wow wow.

 

[Jim]

Morning Kensy, so are you in OWL now or still on induction, well done love, you're so close.

 

[Alpaca]

That's amazing loss since Jan!! Well done ! Xx

 

[KensyLo]

Thank you people!

Hey Jim! Well i'm like half in induction and half in OWL. I sometimes take nuts in my salads but I haven't really started on certain fruits.

Can you please give me suggestions regarding the transfer from Induction to OWL? How slowly should it be and what should I start taking extra?

And also, I'm feeling pretty good in induction; energetic, fit and i'm losing weight steadily...about a pound every week or sometimes less, so yeah..I wanna lose at least another 6 pounds but I don't mind losing a little more than that!

Suggestions please!!!

Morning Kensy, the book recommends adding 5 extra carbs a week until you stop losing, then reduce by 5, I found that was too fast for me, so I added 5 extra carbs a month instead. As it is I must be extremely carb phobic as i'm now on about 45 - 50 carbs a day, any more than that and I start gaining.

 

[KensyLo]

oh ok, I will try that. However, it's really hard to keep track and actually figure out those extra 5 carbs. Still losing weight steadily..much slower though but I like it that way. I feel the slower I lose, the longer I will keep it off...ehmm I hope!

It's been a good fit week with two cakes I baked (and yet to be baked) for two occasions. One liked immensely, the other gonna start on tomorrow. Pictures of both will follow soon!!

Baking is therapeutic for me. I swear.

Cheeriosxx beauties!

 

[Kat1e]

Hi Kensy, i also added the carbs really slowly - more importantly tried lots of different food groups to identify my trigger foods. Good luck!

 

[hondapeeps]

Kensy do you bake for a living or what? They all look so lovely xx
