YIPPEE! Somehow I managed to drop 5 pounds this week! This puts me at a total of 60 pounds down since August 11/06. From 237 to 177. I got down to 178 for a couple of weeks for a wedding about 6 years ago and then quickly shot back up. I haven't been below 178 for 16 years...so very exciting!!! Just wanted to share...

Re: 5lbs this week/60 total
Fantastic progress!!
Well done, Elsie
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!
Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

Re: 5lbs this week/60 total
Thanks everyone! OWL is a great place to be. I do find I have more success when using fitday (helps stop the carb creep and keeps you eating more balanced) than when I am not and also more success when drinking 12 cups of water or more.
Thanks again!Elsie150
