    Re: Victory

    Wow! Now this is a wonderful post! Tell your wife we are very proud of her for completing her first day of induction!

    Tell us John - what made her finally decide to give it a go?

    Hiking sounds like a lovely vacation for you and your wife - if MIL is still being such a sour puss - leave her home!

            I think she decided to do it because she saw how much weight I lost and how much muscle I've gained....

            Or it could just be 40 years of watching her mother eat celery and gain weight!

            Or maybe I'm just soooooo clever and wonderful and fantastic and ...huh? Waddaaya mean big head? MOI?

                                Never in a million years did I expect to see this post. I guess it shows one thing: if a picture says a thousand words, a picture of success (YOU!) finally gets the point across! Congratulations on helping your wife discover a healthier way to eat.

                                    how are things going for her now, John?
                                    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!
