Well, its the start of day 2 and I am raring to go. Down 4 lbs from yesterday. I know its water weight, but damn it feels good to see those numbers go down!!
We had a huge ice storm last night so I cant go to work today, so it will be nice to stay home and focus on stickin to this diet PERFECTLY. and scraping ice off the driveway for a few hours will be a decent workout.
wish me luck on day 2!!! and of course, goodluck pugs, you can do it baby.
OK–everyone has been skeptical because I dont like protein powders, BUT, i found one that i like!!! low carb chocolate isopure tastes like chocolate milk, even with water. Seriously!!! I’m so excited!! The taste or thought certainly wont make me gag!!! now i KNOW i can do it!!!
bring on the next 26 days!!!
yeah i hear ya. i stoped drinking protien shakes a while back. i prefer to chop it up into 2 fat rails and snort the shit. doesn’t burn at all, im actually kinda addicted to it this way.get some choch colored boogers everynow and then.
Hey everybody. I made it through day 2, though my calories were too low. I am really tired and dont have much energy. Still feeling pumped though…I know I am gonna do it. 25 days and counting. Keep sending encouragement for me and my Pugs.
If you’ve made it this far you’ve got it whooped. Keep it up!!!
Day 2
God these days on seem like eternity, but I’m still hanging in there, My stomach has been in knots since I have started, like an upset stomach kinda.
I havent had hunger pains yet, just mad cravings, but I gonna havce one clean cheat meal a week to combat this. I started EDT fat program today, im not sure if im gonna be able to keep doing it. I was fine till i got to the last pr zone, I just had no energy, I unloaded the weights sluggishly and I had enough energy to walk 50 feet before i had to sit down cause I was gonna pass out, my face was pale as a ghost… I couldnt walk for like 25 mins when I was walking to the chair my peripheral vision was all blurry and out of focus…The whole lightheaded and gonna pass out thing isn’t the first time its happened meltdown did it to me too. but not nearly this bad, im gonna do one more EDT and see if it happens again…if it does im not sure what workout im gonna do then. My weight is down to 243 tonight so far 11 pounds lost in two days…all water weight is my geuss… ill kep you all updated…till then
Keep up the good work babycakes I love u too death I know you can do it. Im proud of you ,very proud.

This is starting to sound like a horror story. Remember to get some serious no-carb treats in. Fake juice, fake jello, etc. When I first started out on low carb, I purchased some dried apple rings, and I’d have 3-4 of those every day (3-4 is not even close to a whole apple) but because they were chewy and sweet, they were a real candy. Now, I don’t even miss carbs - but that took awhile. For the first few weeks, I would really lose energy about 2-3 days after my carb-up day.
Baby Face is right, you’ve got this beat - you know you can do the regimen. It’s just a matter of willpower now.
Its the middle of day 2 and I am still going strong. Down another pound, thats 5 lbs in 2 days. Eating completely clean, not even one tiny little cheat, which is huge for me. I’m hungry, but no major hunger pains. Drinkin a lot of crystal lite, which gives me a sweet fix. I really think the shakes taste like chocolate milk, the flax oil is the only painful part.
Keep it up pugs, i love you.
Bets, I don’t like protein powders either, especially vanilla and I am not a fan of chocolate either. However, I do like the EAS Myoplex Strawberry. I wish Grow came in Strawberry as I do think their product is probably superior. Good luck.
Flavored coffee creamers are the way to go. You can find fat free flavors which have about 5 grams of carbs per serving. I recommend Coffeemates - fat free Hazelnut flavored with Vanilla Grow. Good luck, and hang tough.
Pouring a little Crystal Light powder into vanilla Grow makes a great strawberry. Or rasberry, or pink lemonade, or strawberry kiwi etc…
To Bets:
Good luck! Keep us informed about how you’re doing. I read your posts and I would like to add my 2 cents if I can.
First, I agree with TEK, crystal light or Jell-O light will help you create more carb-free flavours for vanilla protein powder. Secondly, when you want to come out of low-carb dieting, please read before an article by J.M.Berardi published in his “Appetite for Construction” about coming out of low-carb diets. It will help you to keep the fat gain at a bare minimum when returning to a more carb-rich diet. It would be quite bad to ruin all the great progress because of some lack of planning.

Hey all—I am gonna start a new thread for Pugs and my journey through fat fast. See us there and encourage us for the next 25 days!! We are almost thru day 3!!
I drink my grow with a wince every morning. It’s still better than all the rest. On workout days, I drink grow with a scoop of PowerDrive. Not only does PowerDrive give me a better workout but it makes the grow taste a lot more pallatable. I also am very careful to find just the right amount of water so the Grow isn’t as thick and I don’t have to drink too much.
Strange that SURGE tastes SO much better than anything else out there. I love that stuff. Can’t wait until the workout is over so I can go to my bottle of SURGE.
Dude, if Grow makes you “wince” you’d have a seizure drinking Met-Rx or any other protein on the market. (Here comes the part when I age myself.) You whippersnappers would shit yourselves if you had to suck down that crap we drank in the 80’s. ALL protein powders these days taste good compared to that garbage! Damned spoiled kids! 
With all do respect, read the replys before you post. For cryin out loud, i SAID im drinking isopure and i really like it, so quit saying shit about me not liking grow. god damn. i dont care what the hell you had to swallow down in 1980, im a girl, im not a powerlifter, and im not gonna swallow down some shit thats gonna make me spend all day in the bathroom puking just to lose weight. im drinking my shakes, thats all that matters.
Ok, I owe you an apology, you were talking to raoul. i totally made an ass out of myself.
sorry.
Bets, I wasn’t talking to you. I was talking to the guy who posted right before me, hence the term “dude”. I can tell that Fat Fast has already improved your mood and thinking abilities! On day 28 I foresee you biting the mailman! Just kidding, just kidding, deep breaths, in and out, gooood…
Hey tek, dude frankly Im getting tired of you saying shit about her she will literally throw up[ if she smells something funny let only drink something she doesnt like… Frankly I could give a baboons ass about what you had to drink in the 80’s, shes very sensitive to certain tastes and smells thats her opinion let it go ur acting childish so as has been said in either an article or a post can’t remember… if you don’t have anything positive, supportive or worth saying besides trashing My gf for not liking Grow then shut the hell up… to put it frankly…Act your age.
Pugs
