Re: Induction starts today!!!
Welcome and congrats for taking this journey to better health. We have very similar stats (well, as far as weight loss). I wish I had your extra 5 inches of height. I'm only 5'2". Lots of support and encouragement headed your way!!Stats F/34/5'2/SW248/CW?
Current Stats 47% Body Fat/Goal is 30%
Not going to be a slave to the scale in 2007!

Re: Induction starts today!!!
Hey, me too!
... you are not alone, you have an induction buddy!
Good luck! I know you will do fine... you are in the right place (these forums) I have been on and off of Atkins and always I have been here and each time these folks have been so wonderful. They are here for you in the good and the bad times and they will stand by you as you head toward the finish line.
So how did you get started? Did you do the "throw all the bad food away" binge like I did? There is something mentally exillerating about doing that
Do you have your recipes lined up for these two weeks? I just know that it's eggs and salsa and some sausage links for breakfast, a couple of salads during the day, and pure steak or pork chops or hamburger patties for dinner... oh, and water water water to boot!
I wish you the best of luck on your endeavor, I send many "success" vibes your way and look forward to hearing about your progress!

Re: Induction starts today!!!
Thanks everyone for your very welcoming words and the positive encouragement. I started drinking my water this morning, good thing the bathroom is close to my desk. I bought the ketostix, can't wait to see them go dark purple, and I pushed the scale way under the bed, hopefully I can leave it there until after induction. Still have to take pictures though, I'll get to that eventually.
No Jason, I unfortunately did not have the pleasure of tossing the "bad" food out, but don't worry my son (12 yrs) put a picture of a model on the refrigerator door so I see her when ever I go there. He is my little drill sergeant.
Thanks Kathy, I will try to post as often as possible.
I like salads and I totally love meat, so that should help, the thing is I like a lot of other things just as much.
How much exercise do you all do. Is there any particular type of exercise which seems to work better?
Thanks again everyone
