Re: Day 4 on Induction for me...
Weigh to go, Jamielee!!
Now put those scales away and dont step on them till Day 14 is over, so you dont get upset if this initial fast loss slows down a tad.
Have you taken measurements too? Often we find our inches drop even when the scales don't.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

Re: Day 4 on Induction for me...
Great job!!! I agree, stay off those scales!!! Go by how healthy you feel, and how much extra energy you have. Keep up the good work.
What would we do without it?

Re: Day 4 on Induction for me...
I have to agree too! 9lbs is usually just water and when the scales jump up 4, you'll quit for sure! I had to take my scale to my neighbors and lock it in her trunk. And it worked for me. Your body weight will fluctuate terribly through induction and that is why Dr. Atkins suggests putting it away and weigh only after your 14 days of induction is OVER.
You are doing fantanstic! No induction flu? Lucky YOU!
Keep up the great work! See you on the downside...

Re: Day 4 on Induction for me...
Congratulations! Measure, measure, measure. Take some before pictures right now too. In a few weeks take some more. When you look at the scale and the mirror frequently, you don't see the big picture. Photographs just don't lie.
Disposable camera and tape measure will be your best friends in just a few months. Go right now and get them if you don't already have them LOL~Joy

Re: Day 4 on Induction for me...
This is working so well for me. I went to Walmart today to get groceries and I didn't even feel tempted to buy the usual stuff I bought before this diet. I got fresh veggies, mayo, ranch dressing, pickles, splenda, cream cheese, shredded cheese, and that was about it! I couldn't believe how easy it was. I also ran into a girl I haven't seen in about 2 months and she said "Have you lost weight?" That made me feel great even though I don't really think you can tell yet.SW: 210

Re: Day 4 on Induction for me...
Welcome jamie. Listen to the others and stay off the scale until day 14.
It is easy! Just keep affirming that to yourself and you will find good things happening for yourself.Comment
