Hi, im new and I have a question.

At parties people do the usual, lots of drugs and alcohol.

I know on my plan (Dr Bernstein, which im surprised that there arent more people on it cause ive been on it for a week and ive lost more then 10lbs but anyway) that were not allowed any alcohol. but what about some weed, would that affect anything at all or maybe shrooms?

I know thats probably a really stupid question, but I guess you gotta ask someone.

First, what is Dr. Bernstein? I want the scoop on it.

Anyway, I don't think that smoking pot has carbs, very highly unlikely. However, I'm not sure that's a good idea for two reasons (well, besides the reason that it's an illegal drug): 1. munchies, munchies, munchies and 2. Some drugs that are depressants, slow your system down (ie weight loss). For example, I was on pain killers for my back and it slowed down my metabolism (and other bodily function...ewww). For the shrooms...they probably have carbs just like normal mushrooms, but mushrooms are a pretty low-carb item.

However, some low-carb diet plan don't shunn alcohol. I drink all the time, with no problems...and so do many others. Try a search about it, you'll see the ups and downs about it. I would definitely suggest the alcohol over the other items

The program limits you to 800 calories a day, 2 servings of protein(7oz), 2 servings of bread(very small),2 servings of vegetables (16 oz) and 2 servings of fruit. You think you would get hungry, so on monday,wednesday and friday you have to go in for a B12 injection that along with a vitamin supplements keeps the hunger away. Ive lost more then 10lbs in less than a week, its a great program. Its all medically supervised, you get an introduction at the start, a recipe book, a complete list of what you can and what you cant eat.

lol thats all just way too complicated for me.

why would you have to get an injection of B12? Why don't you just get Vitamin B suppliments? I use the liquid form (hold a dropper full under tongue for 30 seconds... goes directly into blood stream)

I wonder if that's the diet that Gery Halloway (you know the old ginger spice) did, b/c, have you guys seen her?, she is crzy skinny and in an interview, she said she got injection and was limiting her cals like crazy.
