  • Day 8 Complete!

    My computer at home is down, most likely due to the storms, but I wanted to post a quick note.

    Just about at the end of Day 8 of induction and I've been totally cheat free...don't even have any cravings and have less of an appetite, and I feel great!

    The Induction Flu bug did bite though...experiencing the leg aches...just like the last time. The new for me part of the flu is dizzy spells...only happened once really bad and now it seems fine.

    Don't think I lost anything, but that's ok...I know it will take longer...couple of pairs of pants do feel better I'm patient and as long as I'm feeling healthier, it's all good

    Spike, glad you could make it back!


    You're doing great, keep it up!!! Don't worry about the scale weight (subliminal message to ME!) but concentrate on your measuring tape. Join the tape measure challenge and watch your fat melt away!!! We would LOVE to have you!!

      Hi Spike

      Great job! Are you getting enough water? Taking your supplements? I have to take calcuium/magnesium/potassium supp to help with the muscle cramping. It helped a lot. Muscle cramps are the pits.

          We measure tomorrow or Wed. a.m. You don't need to report anything until 2 weeks from now, when we remeasure and say how many inches we lost. Use mybodycomp.com if you can - it's free and keeps good records.

          Do yourself a favor and do something really nice for yourself now! You deserve it! What can you do to treat yourself or nurture yourself now that you've made it a week?

              Thanks all for the encouragement...I will get my starting measurements today and see how well that goes.

              Actually, posting more in the forums this time around has been a huge help for me too...besides of course wanting to get totally back on track. Talking about one's ups and downs and maybe venting a bit does wonders

              BTW...got my computer back up this morning! I was lost without it!

                  We would be sooooooooo lost without our computer!

                  How did we do it before the technology age?
