  • Newbie ....(again)

    Hi everyone,

    My name's Jen and I'm back for the second and final go around with this way of life. I tried two years ago and lost about 20 lbs. Back then though, I dove headlong into the diet without a full understanding of the phases of the diet and how to incorporate it into my life for good.I pretty much had no plan of ever moving off of induction, and that ultimately drove me to fail (of course). I now have a better head on my shoulders, have studied the book, and am ready.

    My boyfriend and I are in this together, so between him and you guys here on this board (which is fantastic by the way) I know I have all the support I need to succeed!

    I'm currently on day 9 of a spotless induction. As my second time around I'm losing a lot slower than my first time, but I'm down 6 lbs already so I am certaintly not complaining, and im in no hurry!

    Looking forward to sharing this journey with all of you!
    ~Jen~

        Welcome Jen! This is the best forum ever! Congrats on the success with induction (again)...I just did day one today.
        I have to say that I did the same thing...plus a few unique mistakes of my own...and I am also re-reading the book.
