I need advice. I started LL on 7th Feb and had to come off because I had a reation to the packs. I assumed it was a lactose intolerance and so switched to CD. I tried all flavours and took lactase enzyme capsules alongside those packs that were not lactose free. I have been on CD for nearly 3 weeks and the reaction is back again - my eyes are swollen, red and the skin around my eyes and on my chin is red, scaly and very itchy (sorry to be so descriptive but there may be somone out there who may have suffered similar symptoms). I'm not at all sure now whether it was an intolerance to the lactose - it could be something else.
I have tried to continue as long as possible but the time has come to stop, I'm afraid. I really don't want to as I have lost 32lbs to this morning (and that's with 12 days off when I had the flu - and inbetween switching from LL to CD).
My query is this. How do I gradually introduce foods without coming out of ketosis too quickly and having the dreaded weight gain? Remember I won't be using any packs.
Any CDCs who can advise would be more than appreciated.
NB: CD Counsellor, Linda from Hornchurch if you're reading this: I'm a client of Jacqueline in Dagenham, one of your sponsees (?). She asked you what to advise me for working with the limited flavours a couple of weeks ago when I started with her as I thought I was lactose intolerant. Do you have any advice?
Waiting expectantly - and still in ketosis at the mo.......
