Growing up ...I've never been a big bread eater. Growing up we mostly had flour tortillas, but even those are not something I ate a lot of. My biggest problem was chips, tortilla chips and things like cheetos, potatoe chips and popcorn, all nothing but carbs. But I've given them up since July 13th and at first it was hard. <br /><br />There is something called Induction Flu. When you first give up carbs or lower them to no more than 20 carbs, your body does go through a change and there are some temporary side effects, called Induction Flu. You will experience headaches, bad breath or a metallic taste in your mouth, irritability, leg cramps, insomnia, nausea, etc. It basically feels like you’ve been hit with a nasty flu. Symptoms vary from person to person.<br /><br />But they are temporary and it means you are in ketosis and that's a good thing and that when the weight loss begins.<br /><br />You could try giving up bread a few times a week and see how that goes for you. Just like I started exercising 5 minutes at a time, you can do it slow too.

...I like your enthusiasm about this low carb diet. <br />I have no special problem in giving up things or acquiring new habits. I gave up cafeine, substitute sugar with stivia, but when I tried giving up or reducing bread ; I noticed some strange behavior of my bowel movements, and I got scared. Bread is too basic and essential to play games with it. I may, however, try it again sometime as I think it's the main culprit in weight gain.DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567723504977931374.post-23282572600489483882015-08-07T14:02:16.193-07:002015-08-07T14:02:16.193-07:00Thanks Heidi, I appreciate the comment and the for...Thanks Heidi, I appreciate the comment and the forwarding of the post. I'm trying not to make it tough on me this time. My kids are all grown so I don't have to spend a lot of time cooking so I try to make things that can transition to other things, like making chicken one day and then eating it as a salad or with a side dish instead of cooking a different chicken dish every day. I'm feeling great and losing inches and that's all the incentive I need!Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18196096131750922174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567723504977931374.post-84457732690081882582015-08-07T14:00:24.660-07:002015-08-07T14:00:24.660-07:00And the funny thing is I don't really care tha...And the funny thing is I don't really care that much for Chocolate.

But I gave it a try, because of you and I got hooked on bacon and eggs and salads. Great post Alicia. Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04565825445673988514noreply@blogger.com
