@keilin-4 - For the carb counters, heavy Cream is the greatest thing since the Avocado Haha That carton will not last the week!

Well, for me the most important are the calories, yesterday I drank around 1000 calories at lunch 😳😁😛 between coffee with heavy cream and a homemade strawberry shake, the funny thing is that after that I was not hungry at all and I was full of energy to exercise and clean up my garden, I had to eat dinner because I don't like to be hungry at midnight

@chrisw77 - When I hit 160lbs I plan to hit the carbs hard. Carbs allow me to lift more, just the way it is for me. I want to stack 10lbs extra a week for two weeks to get up to 160lbs. I can dream...

Very enlightening, I thought you were fasting without any nutrition. You are making great progress. Nice drop!!!

@chrisw77 - 160lbs to start working up to #160 on the bar. I tried increasing the weight without carbs, doesn't work for me :( I'm gonna see what happens, may change it up later.

@John10251 - I have fasted with mostly water in the past. It works, but it is more of an 'effort'. It would be very hard to go 11 days like that.

Adef, I am going to purchase quest protein- which flavor do you believe taste the best? On the 15th I will be celebrating my “boys” birthday (husband and son). I would like to drink the quest protein shakes and maybe some smoothies until Saturday beginning on Monday.

@tiffany1908 - I have only tried the Vanilla, sorry. Also, if you are not a 'carb counter' you could use any high quality protein powder. Quest is just special because it is low carb and taste great. I can find no other powder that can do that :)

@adef I have tried every diet imaginable. I’m going to get the Quest

@srossca - Last week I lost 9lbs in 5 days with this diet. However, I gained 5 back over the three day weekend. This week I lost 7lbs in 5 days. This weekend I plan to stay on the diet so I don't gain the weight back.

@nikeit - Thanks! This 'fast' has been Reeeealy easy. I am enjoying this a LOT more than I like 'bulking'.

Thanks for the input. I don’t really care for a lot of cream in my coffee, and no sugar. I’ve been trying to add chocolate protein powder for more of a “mocha” effect. But it just clumps up. When I tried blending it with hot coffee it turned to a pudding like mess. I don’t think I could handle all that cream. I appreciate your input

@Tkclemmons - I have a REALLY large coffee cup, so perhaps that is why I can get away with a full scoop and coffee. Perhaps less protein powder? Also, my battery operated hand blender is the only thing that can completely blend it.
