Ugh. PISSing.

[4realthistime]

Ok, I just learned that term, but it definitely applies to me. Glad I'm not the only one struggling with that. Lost around 7lbs on induction, now stuck - up and down a pound. Yesterday's menu:

3 eggs w/mayo
coffee (sorry, must have it) w/half&half

Chicken w/mayo, lettuce & tomato salad

Dry roasted edamame snack (net carbs = 4) - crunch is essential

Roast beef w/broccoli & brussel sprouts

Cheese stick

Lots of water all day and evening

Any ideas?? (Hope I don't have to give up my crunch)

Thanks!

Re: Ugh. PISSing.

Dry roasted edamame snack (net carbs = 4) - crunch is essential

Have you seen edamame on the Acceptable Foods List?

If you want "crunch", have some vegetables instead.

w/half&half

Half and half is not an Induction food. Cream would be fine, as long as you limit it to 2-3 tbsp per day.

How many net carbs are you having and how many come from vegetables?

How much water are you actually drinking?

What's PISS???

Re: Ugh. PISSing.

'Post Induction Stall Syndrome' is a term often used to describe the way many people experience a scales 'hesitation' in the few weeks after their first 14 days on induction - though Dr Atkins defined a 'stall' as being '4 weeks with no inches or weight lost' so it really should be called 'Post Induction Hesitation Syndrome' but 'PIHS' is not such a memorable acronym.

Re: Ugh. PISSing.

don't forget to check your inches cause PISS should really be post induction scale stall since it usually is a scale number phenom only. most folk are still shedding inches which is why they don't reach that 4 week stall threshhold when PISSing.
