Re: Who's Starting Induction 10/15/07

can sombody plssssssssssssssss help meeeee

I am new to the website, but not new to Atkins. I don't know the program as well as many others but I can give you my thoughts.

First thing I noticed is that you skipped breakfast. I think you should always eat breakfast.

The other thing that stands out is that you didn't eat enough of your carbs in veggies. I think it is 12 - 15 of your carbs per day that are supposed to be veggies.

Those are the two things I noticed.

Hey all! Quick hello! I have been so busy busy I haven't had time to check in! But I'm doing well even with the 25 (SERIOUSLY) bags of candy at work today. I didn't eat a one! Had a chicken salad for my lunch and some cheese and sausage later for my break. Did treat myself to a couple cold diet sodas though! LOL! So we almost have ONE WEEK under our belts. I'm scared to weigh in Monday because I don't want to be one of those people who don't lose anything or only a pound! Okay I have to go to bed it 2:30am and I'm tired. I'll try to check in tomorrow! HOPE EVERYONE IS STICKING TO INDUCTION and having a successful time!

Good for you not eating any candy. What a temptation! Don't worry about not losing, just keep telling yourself that you are losing.

I can't believe it's been a week. I am amazed by how fast time goes. I am feeling GREAT this morning. I felt it midday yesterday... all of the blecky feelings left and I just felt so good. It's awesome!!!

They are made with flour too I'm pretty sure. Can you check out the ingredients and nutritional info or is it something you get at a deli or restaurant? Anyway there are low carb wraps that are good to use in a pinch but NOT on induction and not until you get to that level (or "rung") of OWL which I believe is rung 3? Anyway La Tortilla Factory has GREAT low carb tortillas that have only 3 NET carbs per tortilla because it has a WHOPPING 8 grams of fiber! I can't wait to use these occasionally when I'm on OWL! Hope I helped!

I know what you mean, I have a basket with tootsie rolls sitting on my desk!!! Haven't had one either

Was sick in the morning yesterday, my breakfast came back up, but I was fine later.

Eggs for breakfast, snowpeas and fish for snack, pork fried in olive oil for lunch with a cup of lettuce (I don't like dressing so its just the green stuff) have some groud beef with garlic shaped into meatballs (also fried in olive oil) and an ounce of cream chesse for snacks and for dinner chicken with the skin fried in olive oil with another small salad this time with an ounce of shredded cheese. And I'm up to like 120 ounces of water a day (is that too much?)

I'm with you sid234, not weighing myself yet.

I don't think you can drink too much water. I wish I could drink that much in a day!!

Re: Who's Starting Induction 10/15/07

Hey everyone! Havent check in either since friday...I've been going thru alot the past couple of days. Im in southern Cali-thought we were going to be evacuated yesterday, and dealing with all the smoke and ash everywhere. Stress galour...and I did a bad thing. Broke induction. Cant believe it. I could give a million excuses why, but, I was weak. Back on full force today though, and guess I will need to do probably two weeks (from this point) of induction to get the full benefits. Such a bummer. Glad all are doing well. Welcome sid234...glad your losing!

Alimccat,
I was thinking about you since you are so close to the big San Diego county fire. I'm in SFV so not close to any of the fires but they all "surround" the valley so we can see the smoke just hanging like a haze in the sky. Sad, just sad. I had to stop watching the news because it I watched it all day and it made me depressed. I don't care about a million excuse hon, I'd probably broke induction too with all that stress. I'm doing well because things are planned but I'm sure with something as serious as the fire I wouldn't have induction on the top of my list. Take care of yourself and your family in this situation and get back on track when you can. If it makes you feel any better I'm thinking of going into extended induction so I'll be right there with you!

Re: Who's Starting Induction 10/15/07

Hey, thanks for that.FatActressinLA! I am back on track-lost sight just for that one day, got right back on yesterday and am going strong. Looks like things are settling a bit with the fires-smoke is clearing up a bit here in Carlsbad, not as bad as yesterday...
