    Hi Tina
    Good for you for deciding to get straight back on!!

    Though you said you were off induction over the last 2 weeks you still lost weight and inches, so something was working for you!!

    So keep on eating from the allowed list and exercising and it will happen for you I am sure.

    I read that when you did induction 6 weeks ago you lost 10 pounds in your first 14 days, and 3 in the last 2 weeks, so that means you have lost 13 pounds since you started which is nothing to be sneezed at!

    Your list of the kind of foods you are eating seems fine but really for anyone to give advice on your menus we will need to know quantities and see when you ate what (like for breakfast/lunch/dinner and any snacks.)

    We have a special forum where people are encouraged to post their daily menus with quantities of everything called the 'Review my Menu' forum, so why not pop over there and read the first couple of threads explaining how to ask for help there and list a few days meals to see if anyone cna spot any 'illegal' foods hiding!

    I didnt notice much in the way of vegetables mentioned (just caesar salad) - you are eating your daily 3 cups I hope?
    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!

      Where are your veggies? Have a veggie instead of rolled cold cuts for snack..or have half of the amount of cold cuts if they are 'safe' <lots of sodium in those meats, ESPECIALLY if they are processed. Sugars are often found in the ingredients too..so watch out!> and half veggies. Keep veggies at EVERY meal. As Elizellen said, maybe you can post your breakfast lunch and dinner over at the review my menu area so you can get more help with the foods. Hehehe and I just saw her comment about veggies too..but I'm not gonna erase all I wrote NOW LOL!!!

        Don't be discouraged. Just remember that each time you go off plan and back on, you have a good chance at having a harder time losing those same pounds. Try to think of that when it gets tough - nobody wants to have to lose the same pounds again!

            Hi and welcome back. Don't be discouraged, but also don't set yourself up for not having the best results that you can. Do your Atkins right! Follow the rules of induction as written in the book. Eat those three cups of veggies from the list and measure! Watch for hidden sugars in cold cuts and ham. Read those labels and if there are ingredients listed that you shouldn't be eating, don't get them. That's fantastic that you're exercising. I think it's the key to lifelong success and health. Sorry, I have no idea about your meds.
