Haha, i like "period of non-compliance" it has been closer to 2 weeks than one week, maybe 3. I feel like I've had off and on non-compli...
Re: Hitting a plateau
One week is not a plateau. It's a data point. Stick to SCD for another month and see what happens. I have had myriad one week pauses and many two weeks pauses, especially if I had a period of n...

Hitting a plateau
So this has been asked before but I can't find one that's current. I was SO GOOD on 4-Hr-body I've lost enough weight that people are noticing I look better. BUT the weight loss has stopped and tr...
Re: Getting made fun of because of your diet?
I think every one has covered enough ground on how awful your boss is. I have noticed at least 2 or 3 of my co-workers going out of their way to make me feel bad about my diet. Yesterday we had a ...
Re: South Asian / Indian Food Reciepies
I am from a South Asian background and Indian/South Asian food works really well for 4 hour body. I actually buy my lentils at an indian store (cheaper and better quality) There are certain spice...
Re: How long to to 4HB before break?
Congrats on your progress so far. You are doing great. SCD for life, right? I would keep doing what you are doing and only change when you hit a stall. And a stall is staying at the same wei...
Re: 4 week check in
Congrats! It looks like you are doing everything right and are set up for success. If you stall on weight, keep track of those inches. I would much rather lose inches than pounds.
Re: Cheat day! :D
Happy anniversary! Enjoy your day.
Richard, I am tomcornhole on MFP. Send me a friend request if you would like. Always nice to have SCD friends on there. It isn't very SCD frien...
4 week check in
Hi, I have been on this diet for 4 weeks straight. I've been pretty good about finding a routine even though my routine varies. I find that preparation is key. I lost 6 lbs. 3/4 inch off of my...
Re: Alright guys, cheat day 3. I have some progress questions.
I figure if you like it keep it up. I've learned that there is a lot more food out there for protein - cottage cheese, turkey bacon, some sausages, canned tuna, salmon, etc. I personally don't e...
Tomhole - Thx for posting this. I am trying out MyFitnessPal and it's pretty awesome. I am also just barely falling short. I only tracked a coup...
Re: Nose Bleeds
Hi, Good for you for making an appt w/ your dr. I haven't seen or read anything about nose bleeding. Are you taking any blood thinners? Just curious because this diet requires tons of green ve...
Nose Bleeds
Hey Folks, I started this diet about a month ago. During this time I have started getting nosebleeds at night. It did all start after a very hard sneeze one day that caused the first day. Then I ...
Alright guys, cheat day 3. I have some progress questions.
Today is my 3rd "weigh in and measure day." I've lost approx. 5.5lbs in 3 weeks (I say approx. b/c my scale seems to be a little messed up, and fluctuates depending on where it's sitting...
Re: New member needs a buddy
glad you are jumping in- I definitely understand wanting a mentor/buddy, but if you have as you state "a lot of questions" you might also benefit from posting those questions and having ...
I appreciate the feedback! I'm not sure if I can stomach more eggs but I will get creative and try.
Re: Found this interesting recipe
This sounds good and will try it. I am bored of beans, lol. What is a chorizo?
Re: Female. Bacon. Splenda. Crossfit. Plateau?
here are my thoughts. -Muscle/Exercise, cut it out for a month with the exception of walking the dogs and maybe 1 other workout and keep that one to a short period of time (less than 30 minutes) ...
I guess I'm confused on how exercising stalls weight loss on this diet?
Female. Bacon. Splenda. Crossfit. Plateau?
Alright, here's my situation! I started SCD almost 2 months ago... the first two weeks were EXCELLENT! I was loving it. At the same time I joined crossfit and continued my mountain bike routine. T...
Re: Found this interesting recipe
Thanks for the recipe! Here's another one. My husband is a college prof at a university that hosts some Rwandan students every year, we've made this for dinner for them a few times, they loved it,...
Re: Fruit in protein powder smoothies. Allowed?
Fruit in general is not allowed on slow-carb, outside of binge day. It's best to avoid fruit completely during the time when you are trying to lose fat. Having said that, Tim mentions having pu...
I'm hypersensitive to what people think of me when I eat. It's funny because I could care less about what I wear or how my hair looks, but by gol...
Re: South Asian / Indian Food Reciepies
I love indian food, i cook a lot at home too, and i've mostly found it to be super compatible. The only ingredient in question would be coconut milk for your curry.
Re: Science behind 30in30 rule
You already know what Tim says in the book with anecdotes and some limited sciency stuff. The only other studies I have seen on the topic relate only to eating breakfast vs. not eating breakfast....
South Asian / Indian Food Reciepies
Does anyone here tend to eat Indian food at all or incorporate the recipes in some ways? I am not an Indian but I love Indian food and I cook a lot too. Also, I cant really stand the smell after I...

There are a lot of thoughts on cheat day and different approaches. I have always cheated like crazy. The only thing I do now is make sure my lif...
Re: Success Story (so far)
incredible and encouraging. I've been on the SCD and lost a little bit of weight, but haven't tracked because I'm not losing anymore. I'm re-commiting to tracking and am determined to get down t...

Re: doing cardio\sport on SCD
Yes, unfortunately, slow carbing and doing "too much cardio" for your body can stall progress. I've been doing Les Mills Pump for 11 weeks now and noticed when I started doing the longe...
