One more week.

[Ohbehave007]

I have just finished the 14 day Induction and I am thinking about giving it one more week as Extended Induction so I can reread the OWL part of the book.
In the past 2 weeks I have lost about 5lbs, I will check when I wake up tomorrow (in other words later today ) for the final stats. I did add a few more "legal" veggies during the 2nd week just because I was missing them (I was a big veggie eater before Adkins). But usually it was like another cup of lettuce with dinner nothing to carby.

Anyway yay me for pulling through the first (and hardest) weeks.

(btw: The eggnog breakfast shake mentioned on another post is absolutely fabulous.)

Re: One more week.

You are still eating just 3 cup of veggies? Or are you saying you eat more than that?
Congratulations on making it those two weeks - YES.
OWL can be a bit frustrating because Atkins is not writing a lot about it. We are going to have to find our own path on OWL. But it is also exciting.

Re: One more week.

Yeah I eat 3 cups minimum of "legal" veggies, but sometimes I just really want more so I add another cup of "legal" veggies, usually from the salad side of the table. I still stay under 20 carbs a day, on average I eat 15-20 carbs a day, and I try to get 10 carbs just from veggies.

Oh and as of this afternoon (when I got up) my final weigh in showed 6.2lbs loss in the 2 week induction. Wow, feels great.

*Edit - Spelling, and to add that I do not add more veggies everyday, maybe once or twice a week.
