          Thanks guys.

          I'm currently 238lb and i'm trying to get to 175lb, so i have a little way to go yet.

          I've taken a before picture, and i'll take another picture next week when my 14 days is done.

                  Good job! My husband also lost 14 lbs this past week. We started induction last Monday! I am only down 4 1/2 but I am still happy about that!

                      congrats on your great start. I hope you are taking measurements too so you can see the inches of body fat being shed even when the scales don't validate all your hard work.

                          What a great start, Gungadin
                          Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
