  • Inadvertant carrots

    I am on rung 1. I lost 6 lbs on my 2 weeks of induction - and am adding 3 times a week 5 net carbs of vegetables - (YAY spaghetti squash and Cauliflower mashed 'potatoes').

    I was eating Romaine lettuce every day for my salad, but it doesn't keep well enough (the big bags) even when I put them in zip locks once opened so I have switched to the bags of iceburg with cabbage and carrots. The carrots are pretty large pieces so I pick out most but I don't always get all of them. Do you think these inadvertant carrots will hurt me?

    I was hoping I'd do better than 6 lbs on induction, but I had 1 night of 2 glasses of white wine and another night of more than 2 glasses of white wine. I was really planning on having a completely clean induction, but I also need to have this work in the real world for me and I sooooo enjoy my wine now and then. Never alone mind you - but socially for sure - I have cut down my consumption of it DRASTICALLY so I'm just going to keep on as best I can. Tomorrow night is a business dinner - italian food. Was thinking I would skip the wine and maybe try a micholob ultra? I thought of vodka or something but then figured they wouldn't have any kind of diet splenda soda.... Not too worried about the food - will have grilled chicken and salad probably.

    hanging in there!

    6 lbs may show some resistance, but I don't think it's anything to sneeze at!
    There are just so many factors that effect what the scale says, I think as long as you are losing you're doing great. I know wine isn't on your rung, so maybe you weren't "ready" for it, but white wine is very low in carbs, and it's not like you had pizza!

    I'm looking forward to the alcohol rung just so that I can skip it! lol
