        Great job.

        I have a couple of recommendations for you:

        1) Take a progress picture now in whatever clothing you want, and take the same picture every week.
        2) Take your measurements every week
        3) If you're scale obsessed like so many of us, get off that metal monster. The scale is only 1/3rd of this WOE, pictures and measurements are a big part of it.
        4) Know that your incredible induction loss will not continue most likely unless you're a genetic freak. You may even suffer from PISS (post induction stall syndrome) as we call it and stall a couple of weeks. Being prepared for that makes it no big deal.

        Again, congrats and we hope to see you around here for a long time!

          Don't you feel good. Things could slow down now, make sure you have measurements and step back from any hyper-managing on the scale and let your body adjust while you keep building a lifestyle!!!! You've got to feel so great about everything! Yeah!

            congratulations on making it through induction..
            These messages boards are a powerful tool.. It's a place where everyone can relate and most of the time answer questions that you been having.. and most of all give you motivation and inspiration....

              Thanks everyone for the nice messages and the helpful suggestions!!!


              I am taking in each one!! I was almost getting obsessed with the scale, had not measured yet, and procrastinated on taking a picture. I have been thinking about this for the last two days.

              AND what do you know, exactly what was in your messages!!!! Thank you so much, I am going to measure and take a picture. Then I am going to mentally prepare myself for "PISS" and not being a slave to the scale.
