Thought some people might find this interesting.
Obviously there are going to be differences in the way we all react to the Lipotrim program, but somethings we can say with relative confidence.
For example, it will take between 3-5 days for ketosis to kick in. Or that your first weeks weight loss will be glycogen and water, and your second week will just be fat.
Well, going over my diary notes of the three times I've attempted lipotrim, I came up with the following : The effect that cheating has on ketosis.
Having a light healthy dinner : Knocked me out of ketosis. Took a full 24 hours to get back into ketosis. No noticeable weight gain.
Having a large binge-worthy dinner : Knocked me out of ketosis. Took 40 hours to get back into ketosis. Put on 2lbs, which came off by the time ketosis kicked in. (Obviously glycogen/water weight.)
Two days in a row with regular dinner :
Knocked me out of ketosis. (Duh) Put on 4.5lbs. Took 4 days to get back into ketosis. Took 6 days total to lose that 4.5lbs and get back to starting weight. (Making the week essentially a zero-loss week.)
So when you're thinking about slipping, or giving in to temptation, remember :
1) Some people find it really hard to get back on the program after even a minor slip.
2) It will knock you out of ketosis, possibly for days.
3) Even as little as two dinners make up for the entire rest of the week in terms of weight lost.
So is it really worth it?
