  • 8 Days - 10 Pounds! Not bad!

    I am proud to announce that after 8 days of induction, I have lost 10 pounds. I couldn't resist and had to get on the scale!! I went down one size in my pants, one hole in my belt, and my shirts fit better! Yippee!! My water consumption is flippin' off the charts!

    I have lost my cravings for sugar, bread, even salty snacks. It seems like I am bypassing them with considerable ease!! I keep reminding myself that the body and health that I want cannot be attained with those types of foods!

    Now, I need to commit to more exercise . . . first, I am walking to work every day (only 8 blocks in each direction). I don't want to join a gym, since I live in a beautiful area only 11 blocks from the beach. Why pay for a gym, when the roads are free! I do, however, need a kick in the tushie once in a while to make sure that I'm not sloughing off!

    Thank goodness for this board - I have learned so much!

    By the way - is there any easier way to change the ticker, instead of logging on to Ticker Factory each time? Let me know!!

          Weigh to go!!
          Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
          Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                Good for you!! This gives me hope, I am on day three. Not sure when to weigh myself, but I will try and hold out until week one is over. Thanks and good luck!!!
