Agree with Jen..

I have a low thyroid--but found out after several blood tests. (I have the one where you gain weight--and my hubby has the one that you lose weight ) I wanna switch with him. Kidding!

Btw, have you ever been to Greece? I usually go there every summer, I looooove the Greek islands! Justin and I are going there for a week or two this summer

I HIGHLY recommend going to Voulgameni. It is on the ocean just south of Athens. Was the most beautiful place I have ever been... Its also not too far from Ancient Corinth, and the ruins there are just amazing...

On Sunday, keep your carbs to low gi sources ie:

Brown Rice
Sweet Potatos
Oats
Fiber One Cereal
Beans

And DON'T step on the scale on Sunday or Monday - trust me.

No sweets - Its not as exciting as it first seems LOL

Bagels, pasta, bread, crackers, pancakes, waffles, granola. If its low or no fat, its fair game.

Eat til your satisfied but be sure you eat enough. Don't just eat 1 bagel and then nothing else for hours. Shit, I could eat 3-4 bagels in one sitting

NO CARMEL POPCORN - Damn Leslie

The ice cream is fine for a small amount. Skip the pudding and the fruit. We want to keep fructose low.

No fat is zero - you don't take in ANY extra fat than what the food your eating naturally has.

Your protein remains somewhat low as well. No more than 1G protein per lb of BW.

This isn't a cheat day - its a refeed and must be done properly or you could gain fat.

Sorry but no sweets. We all prefer sweets but such is life.

NO SWEETS!!!!!!

Plain air popped popcorn is fine - no oils or butter AND NO microwave popcorn.

Not much protein.

Bagels, cereals, pancakes, FF muffins, waffles, potatoes, crackers. If its FF, NO SUGAR then its fine.
