Well, I said I'd get there......

And I did!

I'm on my 6th day of clean induction! Well, clean if you don't count peanuts, but I've always eaten those during induction - just not often!

I've lost 4.5 pounds so far, in 5 days.

Well done.....congratulations.....Beware of the peanuts, they are very salty....drink lots of water if you insist on eating them!

Good going Knick!

Knew ya could do it! I know you have always done nuts but just watch out they dont give you cravings. I know they do me. Something awful.

Anlhess, you're on! 14 days cheat free challenge it is. In the meantime, I challenge you to the same! ;-P

Terry, for some reason nuts don't really give me cravings. I do tend to eat too many of them though, which is a problem, but at least they're nuts and not potato chips the way I look at it. ;-) I'm actually out of them anyway, so no more for a bit.

Re: Well, I said I'd get there......

Since I'm doing extended induction for the next 2 weeks, may I jump in? It's Jan. 31st for me, which suits me fine, I was planning on doing the OWL rungs a month each, so I'd start Rung 1 on Feb 1st.

Absolutely! You guys should start a thread (or just use this one, although people might not find it here) to measure your progress!

Re: Well, I said I'd get there......

hey peanuts dont stall you on induction at all???? How many time have u done induction?

[knicknack]

Re: Well, I said I'd get there......

They don't stall me, but they're not legal technically either.

i've done it quite a few times - probably 4 or 5 times.

Re: Well, I said I'd get there......

peanuts is my emergency food too.....I have a few bags (small ones with like 15-20 nuts) lying around. When I'm in a hurry and don't have time for breakfast, I take a bag for the bus ride....But only for emergencies....

Re: Well, I said I'd get there......

Glad to see you're doing so well Knick...keep it up...

[knicknack]

Re: Well, I said I'd get there......

thanks spikette! I finally have gotten accustomed to being on the diet and only have a few moments where I'm whiny about not being able to eat something. For the most part all my desire for non-healthy foods has evaporated though. it's the beer/alcohol that gets me, since a lot of my social life involves alcohol - whether it be wine with dinner or beers out. I'm compromising on that one - I drink every once in a blue moon - big events usually (like the superbowl!). I figure a few beers every few weeks won't kill me. Plus I'm on OWL technically, although I am not doing the rungs in order.
