Ok, this diet is frustrating me. I am back up to 220, and I've been eating less whole grains than usual, have one piece of fruit a day (sometimes not even one piece), snacking on nuts, and otherwise eating small portions, eating my veggies (ran out of my staples) & meat, drinking diet sodas, coffee and water, sweetening things with Splenda, and doing all the stuff I am supposed to do.
Is it PMS with water weight gain? Do I need to go back to P1? If I cut out the small amount of carbs I am eating, will I end up being a pissy bitch, like the one day I had no carbs until dinner time when I felt better from having ate those carbs. I don't like being a bitch, especially to my little kids, so I feel a little trapped that in order to lose weight, I have to drastically remove the carbs, but if I do that, I get pissy with everyone around me. I don't want to do that either.
I think I will stay on current course for awhile, until my period is started and maybe done with, and see what happens. I will limit my carbs to breakfast & lunch, and eat meat & veggies only for dinner (which really limits the dinners I can make for my family). I will give this some time to work itself out, and maybe it really is a temporary thing. If it isn't, then I am going to have to do something else, because I refuse to be a bitch while I am on this diet from lack of carbs.
