    More of a lurker than a poster but...

    I wanted to say hello to everyone. Today is the start of week 4. Three weeks and 15 pounds gone. I'm staying on induction for the time being. I'm happy there and things are going well. I told my husband I'd probably stick with induction until at least spring break (week of Mar. 13th). I have an endocrinologist appointment that day. My first goal was to have lost 20 pounds by that date. I figure I'll make that goal at the least.

    Anyway, I just wanted to stop by and introduce myself on the CC forum.

    Welcome! I was always more of a lurker also, but decided I needed to post and keep on posting to get all the support possible. How would anyone help me if they didn't even know my situation! I really love this forum, everyone is so supportive. I have been on and off the wagon for years, but this is my 4th day of induction, and I already feel great.

    Congrats! on losing 15 lbs, and your goal of 20 is just around the corner!!!!

        Welcome to the boards. I find posting to be the same as a Weight Watchers meeting, you get all sorts of great ideas, support, friends. It's really wonderful to be able to talk to people who understand where you are coming from. Losing 100+ pounds is a big undertaking... I know I need all the support I can get.

            I just wanted to say welcome to the Century Club. I always found this place to be the most supportive place on the web and the most accomodating to my weirdness. I hope you find it to be as supportive. Glad to have you here.

                  congratulations on that 15 pounds!!
                  Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                  Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
