Still Hanging Tough
I am on day 8 on induction. I have lost 11 pounds so far. I am attempting to drink 100 oz day but some days I don't quite make it. I am walking for 60 minutes 5 days a week and strength training for 2 days.
I started putting my menus in fitday to prepare for moving on to OWL and found out I wasn't eating enough calories even though the percentages were correct. I have added more higher calorie allowable induction foods to my meals and now my calories are around 1200 a day and I am feeling much better. I know with my 1 hour of exercise 5 days a week my calories need to be a little higher but I am so full I can't eat anything else. Hopefully moving on to OWL will help make this easier.
This time around has been much easier and I think it is because I have been dilligent about following the plan exactly as written. I am also going to move on to OWL after this week because last time I stayed on induction too long, got bored with the food and cheated. I think looking forward to adding new foods as I move up rungs will help keep me cheat free.
