  • I did the 14 days!! Give me some love....

    You know I deserve it!!

    I'm not quite sure where I'm going from here, but I'm just taking in the moment. Instead of celebrating with some of the delicious Italian dishes I grew up eating & making, today I'm savoring & enjoying the baby step I've accomplished over the past two weeks!

    I'm new to all this forum stuff, so please tell me which forum I should be posting in after today. I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

    oooh...I'm all about celebrating!! Yea!!

    If you're moving up the OWL rungs to rung 1, you're more than welcome to start posting in the OWL forums for questions about your OWL experience. But you're MORE than welcome to keep commenting and posting here too. The formality is just to keep the questions and comments about a certain part of this way of eating organzied better so you can get the right answers from the right mods or experienced folks.

    Hope that helps!

        Well done, Mickaella

        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!



        Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

          Congratulations for finishing Induction and for losing 9 lbs! Since you are definitely not metabolically resistant and don't have a lot to lose either, you should move to OWL.

                  Thanks Attagirl! I see you're in the induction phase. You're doing great too! Thanks for celebrating with me today. I needed it. I worked hard to get here, induction flu & all!

                    thanks, mikaella. yes, we're newbies together . nine pounds at your starting weight is amazing. you'll be a skinny-minnie in no time. and yeah, let's be as supportive of each other as we can. i've never been on an official diet before so this is a huge leap of faith to take for me, but i see all the success stories, and what they all had in common is that they stuck with it and they believed. i think i can do that. no, i know i can do that. you can too. rock on.

                      How funny! This my first diet too! My Dr. put me on it. He was very concerned about my weight because I'm so short & it was starting gaining fat around my stomach. Very dangerous. He wants to see me in 5 mo. to check on my progress.
                      No pressure, right.....

                      Keep me posted!
