If this isn't the right place for progress reports then please let me know so I can move it.
Well now, after significant difficultly and false starts I finally managed to get with the program on Aug 12th. I was surprised by how hard it was to get going this time considering I have done this before....but after a couple days I found my groove and then it was like an old glove.
I had a fairly clean induction with only one error....I went to a combination birthday/funeral/celebration of life for a friend of mine who recently departed. His family is from the South so they had a big southern BBQ. There was basically nothing there I could eat so I cheated with a couple of ribs (literally two pieces not racks) and a piece of cornbread (The BEST IN THE WORLD) and a glass of milk. Figured it was better than the beer. All things considered I am OK with this cheat as not eating anything would be insulting at this very family event, and to be honest I NEVER get real Southern BBQ...it simply isn't available around here. So although the timing is bad it is a once in a lifetime event.
Even still I managed to loose 11 pounds on my two week induction. Not bad, though I expected more actually. I was figuring on 15+ pounds for water weight. We'll see how I do on Weds when I weigh again.
I'll report back.
