  • 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!!!

                        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!
