Hello!
I thought I would introduce myself. I am not new to the low carb way of life and have practiced it for 3 years now.
I successfully kept the weight off in the maintenance phase and I found it so easy to follow, that it really was how I ate, and I never really gave it much though.
I became pregnant in May of 2004 and I should have stayed lowcarbing, but I guess I used the fact I was pregnant to pig out and stop exercising. Needless to say, I gained a lot of weight.
I had my baby the end of January, and I started back to lowcarbing on February 15th. I was not following induction at the time though.
On March 5th, I weighed myself and I weighed 139. Today I weighed myself, and I weigh 134. So, as you can see, there is not really a significant drop. I am used to at least 8-10 lbs a month weight loss while lowcarbing.
It came to my attention the other day that eating around 30 carbs a day and not really watching what sources they came from was not following atkin's induction like I had done in the past.
So, on Saturday, I began induction again. I stayed on induction about 4-6 months when I lost my weight several years back. Luckily, even with sitting around for 9 months and eating a lot, I never got back to where I was when I initially lost my weight several years ago. I would call that luck!
So I guess my starting date for induction is 4/2/05 starting at 136, currently 134, and intend to get to 115.
It's so good to be back and not eating that nasty crap that I have been eating for so long now.
