    I did it! I did it! induction results are in...

    I finished my 14 day induction. I'm very happy that for 2 wks. solid I was able to control what went into my mouth instead of my mouth and gut controlling what went into my mouth. I missed bread something awful...but it was worth it. My appetite decreased, and so did my waistline. The best part was my bust decreased!!!!!!!! I am preparing for a reduction surgery and now i'm not sure if it will be necessary! results:

    9lbs total lost
    boobs 5.5 inches lost
    waist 4 inches lost
    arms 3 inches lost
    thighs .5 inch lost (however i strongly believe this is because of muscle i've been roller skating like mad definately more toned)
    hips 4 inches lost
    total 17 inches
    now that's what i call results! thanks to all of you for your support
    where to from here?

    Congratulations those inches lost are great! Losing 20% of weight during Induction absolutely shows you are not metabolically resistent. Are you planning to stay in Induction or start progressing through the rungs? Keep up the great work in either case!

          yes mama kimberly i did lose a dress size! and a 2 bra sizes. That is the part i'm most excited about. That may sound ridiculous to some but it's a really big deal to me. it is a huge self esteem booster.

                  congratulations on your excellent results so far

                  Have you read the Chapter about moving to OWL? Take a look at the stickies on the OWL forum to help you decide if you are ready to move on into the main weightloss stage of Atkins or paddle in the extended induction pool for a while.
                  Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                  Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                    Congratulations on those positive results.

                    It feels so great to have control over the carb madness. Keep going and you will find your desire for bread eases up quite a bit. It still amazes me that I can walk down the junk food aisle in the grocery store and feel no pain.
