    YEA!!!!!!!!!!!! 9 lbs gone in 2 weeks!!!!!

    I'm two weeks in and I have lost 9 lbs!!!!!!!!! I am so incredibly happy with this. I think it's right on target with what you're supposed to lose. Aren't you supposed to lose like 10% of what you want to lose in the first two weeks?


    Thank you all for your help and encouragment!!!

                                  Looks like we started on the same day. Yesterday marked the beginning of week 3 for me. I'm aslo only weighing in once a week now that induction is over. Congratulations on a job well done! Keep up the excellent work.

                                                  I've introduced a couple of induction friendly recipes this week but haven't upped my veggies yet. With the introduction of the 2 new recipes I'm feeling very satisfied right now. I'll stick with induction for the rest of the week and then move to rung 1 on Monday.

                                                  We've got very similiar weight loss goals and are starting from a similiar place as well. Best of luck. If you need a "friend" to get smaller with message me any time.

                                                      Congratulations on your progress, mom! (And you too, Donna!)

                                                      I definitely recommend moving up the rungs. While Dr A was right about a lot of things, one thing that many people here have found is that they don't necessarily lose more by staying on induction longer. I encourage you to move on up the rungs starting at week 3 (or 4)... having that additional food variety really makes a difference in not feeling deprived, which is so important for long term success.

                                                      Best of luck to you!
