    Well, I have been eating healthily for the past week, but was invited to meet a friend today for lunch

    Had veggie burger, chips, salad and coleslaw. Herbal tea. Did not have breakfast as would have been too near my early lunch and will only have a small tea. I don't have any bread in the house (usually make my own) so not sure yet what it will be

    Gave her a box of chocolates that were still around for Christmas, so now I have no chocolates at all in the house

    Fred, put me down for +1½ lbs :( - didn't stick to plan this week - too many distractions but I will get back on track!
    A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit!:rotfl:
    Joined SW 13/9/10 - wanted to lose 56lb and lost 26lb! Rejoined on 9/1/12 having gained 17lb of my loss!!! :(
    Want to lose 50lb. 50 - 8.5 = 41.5 to go!

    Hey Everyone,

    Just checking in for the night.

    Vix, could it be Anaemia? I remember having that taste a few years ago when I had an Iron deficiency.

    Eric, You seem to be the fountain of all diet related knowledge, so I have a quick question for you!
    I've been reading up on alcohol and ketosis, apparently they are quite a dangerous combination. I've had the odd drink here and there and been fine, although I'm going out for my cousin's birthday soon so I'll be drinking quite a lot :beer:. I'm now wondering if I should lay off the diet for the night (laying off the alcohol is not an option!!!). What are your thoughts/experiences of it?

    I can partly answer this.
    I understand that if you are going to drink then you need to come out of ketosis first.I understand that it is very dangerous to drink & be in ketosis.I really urge you to be very careful.
    Are you doing cambridge or similar?

    Thanks for the advice, Beanie.
    I was on Atkins, although I'm no longer following it 'to the letter' so I guess you'd just call it 'low carb'. I'm only having around 30g of carbs a day, so it is very low.
    I don't really want to come out of ketosis as it takes so long to get back into it, but I definitely will do, as the risks seem to be too great to ignore.
