Hi,

Im in my 15th day of induction. I feel fine and I can with no problem stay in this phase for more a couple of weeks.
My doubts are: I read that ppl who plan to loose more than 50 pounds can stay a bit longer on induction, to improve their results or because they need a little extra time to have their bodies used to a new eating program.
On the other hand, as A member here reminded me, I didnt lose much but I lost actually 10% of my total goal, so I should moove to phase two.

what do you guys think I shoud do??

thanks

Re: doubts doubts doubts....

Personally I think you should do what you are comfortable with. To lose 10% of your target weight loss is a good figure.

If you do continue with induction, try to knock the coffee on head for a while. I read that you were drinking 1 mug a day. You shouldnt really be drinking caffeine at all. Get rid of that, and you should lose more.

HTH.

Good luck, i know how addictive it can be.

Im addicted yes. It is not the headaches I get if I stopp. My blod pressure is very low and it gets worse without coffee. Now it is not that bad, but during summer I actually faint.

decaffeinated (sp) green tea is fine.

But nothing with caffeine I'm afraid.

last time he said it was a good thing. That it is hight pressure ppl should worry about....and to have coffee when I need it.
Im the kind of person who can have 10 expressos after dinner and still fall asllep with no problems.
