Ketosis occurs when you are not eating carbs. The Diet Coke is not the problem. Someone once told me, "Plan your work and work your plan". By being true to sole-source (Diet Coke included), you will lose weight. The scale is imprecise and messes with your mind (at least, it does with me). I know in my case, it's easier to jump on the scale than follow the plan I have outlined, go to the gym and pass up food that I like hoping the scale will tell me that it is still okay NOT to do what I need to do. It's TOUGH!!! Don't get me wrong. If it were easier, everyone would be slim without bariatric surgery. But, it's not. Losing weight is the most difficult venture I have had to do in my life and I'm a physician. So, I can only imagine the difficulties for other folks who have so many distractions in their lives. One needs to view this as a full-time job——because it is. In the midst of all of these food commercials and food-focus everywhere you go promoted by the billion-dollar fast food industry, many Americans have just given up because they have lost hope in ever losing the weight. But, I still believe that I can do it. I put the weight on myself and I and I alone should be able to take it off. No scalpels, no hypnosis, just me. Hang in there, Ann. Believe in yourself. Good luck!! |
