So this weekend, Mark and I kind of went off the reservation with the Advocare Max plan.
Germania Oktoberfest.
I was feeling woozy due to the heat/humidity and all of the Max pills making my stomach queasy - so to stop that I ate a Schnitzel sandwich. Definitely NOT part of our diet guidelines! Deep fried veal covered in Sauerkraut & mustard.
AND I then proceeded to drink my weight in heavy beer...and then eat a bratwurst, AND THEN stop at Steak & Shake for a double bacon cheeseburger & fries on the way home afterwards. Ya...not my finest moment(s).
Luckily, I was really sick the next day because of all the beer...so most of the terrible food didn't stay with me long...(ewwww!!!!!) I am too old for this!!!
So, I gained 1 lb since last Thursday...and my stomach is even MORE messed up. I have kept with the pills and shakes, but I still don't feel right. Monday at workout time, I did my 15 minutes on the eliptical and the weights...but started to feel woozy again, so I went home and went to sleep.
I am feeling better today (Wednesday) after our workout, but I can't say I am loving the Max phase. I think I just have a sensitive stomach and pills make it more sensitive.
On a positive note, I can now fit into my other skinny work pants - my gray suit pants. First time in 2 years! So that is nice.
We also have our formal couples photos tomorrow night, so I guess I feel pretty skinny for those too.
BUT still 8 more days of Max Phase. We shall see...I have never wanted to eat a Club Sandwich so much in my life...but I can't stray anymore!!!!
Cleveland Oktoberfest this weekend...I may skip it since I can't be trusted.

I wonder if you are drinking enough water and eating frequently enough. There is an adjustment to the Max Phase for sure. Drink water all the time!!
I also have noticed when I eat crappy foods now, it really bothers my stomach. Keep going! Get back on the bandwagon! Let your results motivate you!
