Your menu looks pretty good...are you using Fitday to see how it all stacks up? Here's a link to help you with it

Congrats on being close to goal! The last 10-15 pounds can be slow to come off, so be patient and don't lose heart.
Because you are so close to goal, when you are done your 14 day Induction, it's important to start working your way up the OWL ladder. Induction is mainly used as a cleansing tool, and a springboard for forming new habits and it's not to be thought of as a crash diet. There's no harm in doing what you are doing, but don't get stuck in Induction, especially when you are so close to your goal.

Re: My First Induction Day

Chococat, what brand of Stevia do you use. I haven't found one that I like yet. Also is it expensive.
