    Peppermint tea

    Im drinking loads of peppermint tea and loving it but just spotted it has a small amount of carbs in it. Anyone else know if its ok to have. I can check my ketosis status on monday but dont want to waste the weekend drinking the tea only to find out its knocked me out of Ketosis

    Oh I didnt realise that we couldnt swap. I cant eat something i dont like, that would make this a v unpleasant diet. Il try adding things but i think ive already made my mind up and the damage has been done. Such a shame that I cant give someone my shakes as they will only go in the bin.I dont...

    Not a weigher-Anyone else out there not an avid scale stepper?

    I try not to weigh myself. Ive said that Il weigh at the end of the month just so i kno how effective the diet is being. I think weighing yourself weekly can be demorolising. You stick to the diet ridgedly and feel great then get on the scales to find that you havnt lost. I used to be gutted...
