It's the "BIG DAY" today when official induction is done. My weigh-in was a disappointing 3.3 lbs less than when I started. Hardly anything to get excited about since it's only 'flux' weight. My waist is half an inch less.
Have noticed my evening bloat going down. At first I'd add 2 inches to my waist in the eve....second week down to 1 inch, last couple of days only half an inch of daily gain; and I'm hoping this trend continues. Not sure yet what it means, but I'm sure it's improvement on some level.
Maybe I'm having too much sodium? I don't know what a good daily sodium goal would be. Any suggestions? I'm going to cut out cheese, stay on 20 gram OWL, and see what happens in the next couple of weeks. I did have a lo-carb muffin around day 10 but another ADBB member said to remove it from my foods until OWL rung fir grains so I did. I was confused by the induction menus on the Atkins nutritional website that allow breads, pancakes and muffins. I've never been resistant to any of my other weight loss efforts but this one.
Keto stix are still nothing like any of the colors on the bottle..maybe they're 'bad'? Don't really notice anything different except a lack of energy. Sleep patterns are the same. Mental well being is slightly improved.
Thank you to all in this forum who addressed my wearly newbie concerns and I'll be movin on to the OWL forum now.
