Oh my, do I know that feeling! Being afraid to mention a new low for fear that it might not hold if you say it out loud.

I lost a total of 4 pounds during the fast, back to very strict low carb for 2 days and this morning, I am down another pound! I'm holding my breath that it holds!

See, I have heard many say that a fat fast will produce weight loss only to gain it all back once it's over. I am cautiously hopeful right now because it seems to be holding.

Susan, they are both very rich but that's also why they are a part of the fast. That richness (fat) is what helps keep you feeling full.

Looking forward to seeing more pics of your addition.
