Sorry you're dropping out, BlueSojrn, but I understand not being quite on board with everything yet. I found myself starting to weigh again this week (I'm used to daily weighing), so I think I need to hide the scale.
Kay Bee, I was very afraid of cutting out both butter and bacon because I didn't know what to cook eggs with. I don't like them scrambled with coconut oil (which is what I cook most everything else in), but I tried macadamia nut oil and it works okay. By the way, mac oil makes a good dressing on a spinach salad, too. About the peanut oil, since peanuts are legumes, I'm avoiding it.
The only real problem that I've found with the challenge is that I'm having a hard time getting enough calories. I used to get alot of my calories from dairy, and without it, I have trouble getting even to 1,000 calories. Some days are well under 1,000, but I don't feel right eating when I'm not hungry just to get in more calories. After all, eating just for the heck of it got me obese in the first place!
Good luck to those of you starting today!
