    Re: How's everyone doing? update thread!

    I got rid of my scale a long time ago. Clothes feel looser (day 1 of induction was Jan. 16) so that makes me even more curious. First time on Atkins I was going to Curves but that bores me now and I have started walking instead. Time to buy a new scale!

        Hi,

        I started induction (2nd time around!) Jan 16 as well. I'm down 13 lbs so far, but as you can see I had a lot to lose! Lots of trips to the bathroom in the first few days as the water weight came off! Two things I'm this time to help make me more successful this time is:
        1. Planning my meals ahead of time
        2. Taking that psyllium stuff from the beginning, and not waiting to need it!

        I like so many others who are STACers know how important it is to do this right this time, and I refuse to be stopped!

        Thanks to all for all of the knowledge shared on these pages!

          Hey, I started Jan 5th. As of Saturday, I had lost 10.5 pounds. I have vowed to stay off the scale until Wed. so I will have a better update then! I was cheating tons, now I'm back to being very strict, and this is my third cheat-free day, so "fingers crossed" Here's to seeing the scale go down tomorrow!!!!

          Good luck everyone!

            Hi folks -

            My weekend (and cheat free period) was interrupted by the afc championship game, and I had some (low carb) beer. Between that and TOM I'm retaining water, so I'm avoiding the scale so that I don't get mad at myself. My clothes felt a little tighter the day I got TOM but they seem to be better now, so hopefully nothing too bad.

            I'll be weighing tomorrow though, for the thursday challenge. Hopefully I won't have gained! I've been having real problems with my period though, so I don't see how it's possible for me to not have gained a bit.

              Speaking of TOM, does this woe affect it that much? I thought this time that it would never stop! I am always so regular, this time it went on for almost 2 weeks-I was really beginning to get worried. I still have not lost any more pounds BUT I have gone down a whole size, which makes me feel sooooo good! I have been totally cheat-free and exercising and drinking tons of water. I didn't know I could hold so much water! Sometimes it does give me a tummy ache though, if I drink too much at once. I can slam down 20 oz in nothing flat now.

                Today is going well for me. This morning I had a bacon mushroom cheese burger with lettuce tomato and onion and a bit of SF ketchup, mustard and mayo YUMMMMMMM. I didn't get any exercise in yesterday, but I am hoping to do much better today.

                  I'm still cheat free and on day 10...the scale has stopped and yesterday i got my test strips in. I'm not real sure on when to test but this morning I showed neg. and after exercise today I showed traces...Anyone have ideas or suggestions on the best time to check?

                  I'm hoping that because I don't have as much to lose this time that it will come off slower. It does get discouraging not seeing the scales move. I weighed Tues. and I had lost but weighed this morning and I'm the same. I'll do it again Sat. or Sun.

                  I'm glad to have the support. Thanks for listening(reading).

                    I'm still here and going strong. I held steady on weight loss my 2nd and 3rd weigh ins at 260.5 lbs. But today (and I know I'm not supposed to weigh until next tuesday) I am down to 257.5!! WOOHOO Plus, it's TOM and I know that next week I'll be down more just because of that!!

                    I put on a pair of pants I bought for Christmas party, and I had to wear them with a knee length girdle...Today was probably the last time I'll be able to wear them!! They are just about falling off my waist/hips and the butt and legs are baaaaagggggyyy!

                      I started this time 12/31/05. I didn't want to go back to work dealing with the induction flu, so I started at the end of my holiday vacation. I have been able to be strong. The only real weakness for me is that our office goes out for Mexican every Friday. I love chips and salsa. I MEAN LOVE. But with all the cravings gone, I have been able to stay strong. I have lost 13 lbs as of today. Pleased that I am on my way. My hubby and daughter have both changed to the WOE, so I have support both here and at home. I LOVE THIS PLACE.
