So I got on the scale today and 2lbs I've gained! Now if I get my period today - mystery solved. If not. Damn it's gotta be the carbs. *sigh* I am not going to freak out yet. My body isn't used to the amount of carbs I am giving it and may need some time to adjust. I usually have about 120 carbs a day. I'm having A LOT more on this WOL. But I am less swollen then I've been in a while so that's a plus.
Not enough water yesterday either. Need to do that. BUT I'm happy to say I remembered to drink my two glasses of water and lemon juice. Haven't had BK. Not hungry yet. Cabot says not to eat until hungry. I did use the restroom 3 times this morning. TOM is going to start today or my liver is really starting to clean itself out.
BK: Smoothie w/ the usual stuff, carrots, kale, beet greens, almonds, orange, pineapple, strawberries.
Lunch: Salad w/ candied pecans (yum!) balsamic dressing, cucumber, carrot
Dinner: Yummy stir fry again but with chicken. I didn't even finish all of my serving because I got full.
Dessert: Yep I needed it. Apple w/ walnuts, covered in honey.
1 cup of rice milk. Stuff is addictive.

Unless you're getting the unsweetened variety, rice milk could be the real "carb" culprit here, since it's the only simple carb I've seen you write about. Most "milks" on the market add sugar, since there is sugar in regular milk as lactose. I drink unsweetened soy usually, but you have to kind of work your way up to it, generally.
ReplyDeleteDon't blame the muesli or the buckwheat noodles, though! I'd say they're probably blameless!
Understood. I only use the unsweetened. :)But even that has like 46g carbs per serving - Yikes! Still...mmmmm
