    I broke my STALLLL!!!!

    Hey Everyone:
    Just wanted to share some exciting news. I put away the scales for a few weeks, because I got disgusted with NEVER loosing any more weight. It seems like I lost 14 pounds almost IMMEDIATELY, then it stopped for several weeks. I was getting soo discouraged and finally took ya'lls advice and put away the scales for a while.
    Well...I've been feeling like I was loosing, so I took out the scale today....and guess what??? I've lost 11 more pounds!! I've gone from 244 to 219!!
    25 pounds lost!!!
    I just wanted to thank you all for your warm encouragement to get through that time when I was getting sooo discouraged. I truly appreciate it.
    For those of you out there who have gone through similar stalls: HANG IN THERE!! and....BACK AWAY FROM THE SCALE!!

        Weigh to go!!
        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!

          Great job! I've been losing at a fairly consistent rate since I started. However, weighing myself day in and day out (first thing in the morning) was getting to me. Two weeks ago I put the scale in the closet. I was rewarded with a 3lb. loss last Friday. Hopefully this Friday's weigh-in nets similar results. If not, I'll keep plugging away. I'm due to stall with only 13lbs or so left to go.

                    Hello everyone!!!

                    I joined yesterday but started doing Induction on May 31st and and have stayed on extended induction since then. The scale keeps showing the same weight for over the past month so I've stalled but I've noticed my body is changing so it's not really getting me down. Since I've started, I've lost 4 inches around my stomach at the naval section so I know this nutrition approach is working!

                    I'm determined to get past this plateau I'm on so I've kicked up my exercise routine. I'm a treadmill junkie!! When I first started I wasn't exercising at all. Now though, I'm walking 5 miles a day and I start the incline at 10.0 and change the incline by 1.0 every 10 minutes. I've determined to be hard core until August 29th which is the day I do my next weigh-in. I HAVE to get past this plateau

                    I'm going on a cruise at the end of October so my goal is to be 185 (which is 65 lbs lost). This was my goal weight if I took my my week lbs lost without any plateaus. I'm still determined to reach that goal cuz I don't give up that easily.

                    Paul

                    PS: For all of those who hate the treadmill, I strongly recommend Deborah Cox's Remixed CD! The beats match my walking speed and it's helped me many days I just wanted to give up. I hope it will help you out also.




                    Making Lots of Progress



                    My goal was to be 200 by my cruise which starts tomorrow. I'm happy with my progress - even though I'm 4 pounds shy.
