  • 20 lbs gone in 6 weeks

    I am sooooo glad that many of you persuaded me to move on from Induction to OWL. After adding the extra veggies I jump started my weight loss again and lost 2.5 lbs this first week on OWL.

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you to everyone for your support!

        Thank you guys! I have to admitt I was a little skeptical about actually losing more when adding more veggie carbs. Now I see why many of you recomend to move on. It's fantastic.

          That's great!

          If you happen to have a week with no pound loss on the scale, please don't panic. Ride it out... I had one of those weeks 2 weeks ago. The next week, I lost 2 more pounds. Patience is key.

          Keep up the great work!

            Thank Mitzie. I will try not to panic anymore. I had one of those weeks last week, which was my 5th weel and last week on Induction. I had a zero loss. That's reallly what motivated me to move on.

            I think I forgot to mention that I aside from the 2.5 lbs, I also lost 5 inches. So I decided the tape measure is my best friend, not the scale.
