Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Can't have any chees or I break out in hives and try to rip my skin off And to be honest, this late in the game I have no taste for it anyway. Honestly I just crave SOMETHING. Good idea on the chicken pieces, have to try that sometime. I already have bacon almost every morning for breakfast so I'm trying to avoid too many more nitrates. Plus I'm worried about a decent protein to fat ratio.

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Got room for one more???? I officially started on Jan 1st so I'm right on schedule. Induction flu has kicked in and guzzling water, water, water! It's pretty interesting that while I was cheating, it was so hard to drink water, now I'm drinking it no problem!

Breakfast today- 2 scrambled eggs in butter with chopped scallions. 1 piece of string cheese
Snack - 1 piece string cheese
Lunch - rosemary grilled chicken 1 cup salad greens with homemade dressing, 1 cup snowpeas with shallots
Snack - 1 oz cheddar cheese
Dinner - will be grilled salmon and the other cup of salad greens/dressing.

I CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome Mindy, great to have you.
Its midday on the 2nd and I am still on track, not any popcorn sniffing either.

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Well make room on that wagon!

I am not re inducting but tweaking my eating and letting go of a few things that I have allowed to be in my daily eating. (heavy cream, coffee, splenda to name a few)

They are out of my menu for the time being. I need to clean things up a bit, especially after a bout of the flu for the last few days. Keeping it simple.

Have had to give up Curves because of some degenerative arthritis showing up in both of my shoulders so walking is it for now. Just me and Leslie Sansone in my living room for now. Im gonna miss Curves, but it was really hurting me to go.

Desert my friend........... God bless you for holding that popcorn and not eating a single one!

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Well at the end of Day 1 for me, I feel like (and according to Fitday I know!) that I was too low on calories. Only managed 1100 or so including the cream in my coffee . I am hungry enough to gnaw some furniture (anyone know the net carbs in that?). I have got to find some ways to fill out my diet or I'm screwed.

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Paul, one big no no on the WOE is that you shouldn't be hungry. Post yesterdays menu for the experts to look at. Are you eating enough fat?

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Just checking in on Day 2. I've managed to do pretty well, but my huge weakness is after dinner while watching TV. I've decided that in order to curb my cravings for sweets, I save my cup of tea for then, then I go to straight to bed!

I've managed to eat breakfast of eggs & bacon for 2 days and lunches of salads etc. We've had salmon and pork chops for dinners with steamed vegetables, all Atkins acceptable foods! Woo Hoo!

Tomorrow I'm back to work. It's easier not to snack there because I'm too far away from junk food places and because hubby & I share a ride to work, I can't go anywhere until he picks me up! I'm making some crustless quiche for breakfasts this week (hubby is out getting the spinach!) and lunches so that covers me for the next 4 days!

Everyone rocks! Keep it up!

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Gala, I had a fierce headache for 3 days - no induction flu, but the headache was so bad that on day 2 I had a real coffee - gave me a couple of hours releif from it! Then about mid day on day 3 I realised it was gone and since then I've felt great! Hang in there, it will go.

I think you need a bit more veggies. On Induction I had a big salad every lunch with cheese or meat, and at night steamed or stir fred veggies with meat or fish.

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

Checking in... I am sipping my morning cup of herbal tea, following up on all the posts.

Welcome to the new challenge members!

Yesterday I was doing fine foodwise, but I still have to adjust to drinking so much water. That's 88 oz for me or 2.6 L. Jad to get up several times this nicght...

How do you people trick yourself into getting in all that water?

Re: Clean induction as of January 1st

I love that show. I thought long and hard about applying for this season, but I couldn't afford financially to miss 2+ months of work assuming I didn't win
