Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

I need you guys!!!

I'm disappointed in myself... I made it 21 1/2 days, no cheats! I've been really stressed lately and well ..should have grabbed for turkey breast instead of candy.... can I continue to go with 1 day less on my stats? LOL

I'm back in the saddle, figured after my bad ways, I began anew at dinner again.

Jenn- what was the diet pill study?

Caterina - you are doing so well!!!

Marty - you know, I was never a water person myself. For a couple years now I've drank more water than anything else. I drink it out of a straw and I like my water more room temp! Find the way you can get it in and before you know it, it becomes more than just a habit, you will notice how better you feel with it! Really!!!

Kass - diet soda, I used to drink alot of it - maybe six cans per day! Yikes! Hang in there - it will get better!!

Ok - back to work - I really need to put in for some vacation time!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Welcome back Tracy. Was wondering where you were. Look at it this way...at least you didn't blow your whole day. Whenever I have a small cheat, it turns into a full day of cheating. (Something I'm working on). Good job for starting back at dinner. Keep us posted on your progress.

Wlecome back Jenn...good idea to skip on the diet pills.

Hey Catrina/Sherri/martylaine, eat well today ladies....we are going for the gold.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Thanks, I think part of it was I have only lost 6.5 lbs in all those days and that was basically at the beginning! I know, I should have continued because I know it works and think my inches are down... I think my willpower was down as well! LOL Totally stressed out at work and overwhelmed!


You are right, I didn't blow the whole day so I'm going to continue - thanks!!!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Tracey- the diet study was going to be a year long study on the effects of 2 FDA approved pills (already being used for other things). Both of them have shown a weightloss effect so they were going to combined the 2 and use them for a weightloss combo. It was going to be very monitored by Baylor medical as well and the pharmacodical (sp?) company. But...this weekend hubby and I went off Atkins because we were going to go lo cal like the dietition instructed but we couldn't control anything....too much bread, sweets, beer......and the sugar stuff just tasted horrible!! I told hubby right then and there....that Atkins is our way!!!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Jennifer - then it was a great decision! did you have to go lo-cal before beginning? If so, then aren't the results improvised? LOL

I have gone back and forth throughout the years with lo-cal and LC and just like you, have a hard time controlling myself once I do the lo-cal or ww program! It is much easier to control my foods with LC, that I have to admit!

I've done well so far today. Actually, I think part of it is because I've been swamped and a lot of meetings! I didn't intentionally do it but did not eat until around 1:30pm.... each time I thought about getting myself something for breakfast something happened here!

I'm going to the Y tonight for cardio and weights. Usually I like to get it all in on one night since I'm already there and then I don't have to go each and every night for 30 minutes for cardio one night, weights the next etc. May as well stay and be there for 1-1 1/2 hours if I'm already there ya know? Anyone else do this or am I crazy?

Will this thread continue on into November or will there be a November thread? I guess we could all state our accomplishments at the end of November? I still will have some! 21 1/2 days cheat free right! LOL

Ok - I had a minute and thought I'd pop in. Hope everyone is having a great day!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

I'm all for a November thread!!! Since I am restarting my induction today I will need support from now on....... LOLOL

Tracey...I am always the one who goes for 20 minutes and ends up staying for 90 minutes!!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Hey Tracey...do not be hard on yourself. Making it 21 days is a great achievement. I'm so proud of you for jumping right back in there.

Welcome back Jenn! I'm so glad that you didn't follow through with that study. I just don't want you to have any status post residuals from the diet pills. Atkins is so much easier to do than low calorie. I never feel starved at the end of the night (which is a major plus for me).

Hey Tasha!! How are you doing? I hope you come back and join us soon.

Hey Marty and Kassoria. I hope you both had carb-less days today.

I can't post menu right now (too tired). It's exactly the same as yesterday (10/23). Good night!

**PS let's keep with this thread so we don't lose contact with each other.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Good Evening Ladies.... Had to get at least one penny in today....

Yes Caternia, I did have a carb-less day today. Almost had a foodless day.... Not feeling real hot today, maybe tomorrow will bring a better day and more food. I'm afraid my body is thinking I'm trying to starve.... not losing at all, but hey, not gaining either.

JeNN: Glad you came back to us. We may not be perfect but we're family and we can get through anything as long as we stick together. And I for one don't know how far I could get without you guys here. The support is AWESOME!!!

Good night and talk to everyone tomorrow.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Hey girls,

I am exhausted. Had a class tonight and just walked in. I had a very good day today and I am meeting my goal of not weighing myself daily or every couple of days. Talk to ya later.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Hey Friends,


Where is everybody? Hope you all are doing well. I am still on track. TOM came and I didn't even want to eat a whole cake. LOL I am so ready for this weightloss. Although on Friday I will have a couple of alcoholic beverages. Will try to stay away from the cake. I will try and make myself a low carb cheesecake.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Good evening everyone. How is everyone today? I'm tired, so tired!! I don't know what's up with that. I go tomorrow to get results of my MRI. I just want to get better so I can exercise. I haven't measured or weighed this week (TOM is here). I think that may be the culprit of my fatigue!!

Today's stats: 78 oz. of water.

Breakfast:
-Broccoli Quiche
-Bacon

Lunch:
-Pork chops
-Salad
-Ranch Dressing

Snack:
-Celery with cream cheese
-Turkey breast

Dinner:
-Meatloaf
-Faux Potatoes
-Green Beans
-Salad
-Ranch Dressing

Marty, I just realized I didn't answer your question about the water. I drink so much (when TOM's not here) because when I don't I get bloated really bad (horrible feeling). Speaking of horrible feeling, I'm sorry that you're sick. I hope you feel better soon.

Kassoria, Tracey, and Jenn you doing ok? If I forgot anyone, I apologize (fatigue messes with the brain).

Goodnight everyone!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

I worked through my illness in a margaritta glass. I knew I shouldn't have one...but.... it did make me feel better mentally. I only had one and I did eat right... I know, lousy excuse. I promise I will be good. I did find a sugar free, carb free margarita mix from one of the sponsors on this site that I'm going to try.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

I'm with Scaleskl.... Did everybody go on vacation and forget to take us....

I'm trying to get more water in me today... You guys tell me that i will learn to love it ... I hope so.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day so far.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Marty: Let me know how that Margarita's mix works out for you. I"ve tasted BAJA bob's before...not margarita, something else. I love Margarita's and Chevy's has a mango margarita...YUM YUM!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Scaleskl.... Guess it's just you and me girlfriend.... I will let you know. it's 5.00 for the box (I think of 10) and I paid for priority mail for another 6.00 I wanted to know... They are single serving so you can take them out with you... Ask for a shot and a small glass of water.
