I am from Ontario and I must congratualte you on your loss of 60 lbs. That is fantastic. You must feel that as well. I have lost 25 lbs and went off this diet a couple of days ago. My husband and I have been on this low carb diet and he has lost 40 lbs. But we are both feeling very tired and exhausted and therefore stressing the body out. I am wandering if anyone else has had this problem and gone off the diet for a couple and then resumed it again. How long does it take before the body goes into ketosis again.I would love to hear from anyone who has experienced this.
