  • What a difference 4 days makes

    I finished my 14 day induction 4 days ago, but I decided to continue with it for at least one more week. I was having intense cravings for carbs, mostly at night. Eventually it was all I could think about when I was going to sleep - I was almost going mad with my cravings for fries, chicken fingers, sandwiches - you get the idea.

    Well I'm happy to report that only four days later, all that has completely gone away - it's completely amazing. I'm at home with my family right now, so I'm obviously surrounded by bread, rice, sweets, and all that good stuff, but the amazing thing is NONE OF IT APPEALS TO ME ANYMORE! I think about eating fries, and I get a little nauseated. I can't believe this change. I know I'm ready for OWL now and for the rest of my life.

    Great work Spin! that is the only viable reason for staying on induction for longer, to get rid of cravings, now you're in control of that you can work on adding some things back in, first off, VEGGIES!!

    Good luck on OWL!

      Keep up the good work
      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!
