And measure yourself NOW! Don't go by that number on the scale. Go by the changes in your body. MY goal weight is about 165. That's a lot and I am not that tall. But, I know that with my muscle mass I am going to be skinnier at 165 than I was as a teen at 137. So measure yourself--biceps, chest, waist, hips, thigh, neck. Those are the numbers to be looking at! So glad you took the plunge. I really feel you will see a HUGE change in your body, and then the scale number may not even matter so much.
JILL
HW 298
HW (this time) 248
GOAL ONE 228 (take 2)
GOAL TWO 213 (personal goal)
GOAL THREE 199 ONE-DERLAND
FINAL GOAL 165
It's not about the results. Its about the process.

Good for you! Stay off that evil scale!!!
Try to get 80-100 ounces a day!
Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right.

Good for you
Another way to keep track of inches lost or rearranging themselves is to find a really tight outfit and photo yourself in it so you have a comparison to check against once it starts to get loose on your body.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!
