    Question!!!

    Hello there,

    I have had a terrible cold all week and had a couple of Halls cough drops, and some paracetemol, I am in my induction. I read in the book it would stop the process so now I am so bummed out! I do feel very light and its my 6th day. My tummy is flatter and my trousers are looser but I am just afraid I might of not lost weight when i jump on the scales. Should I give up?? should I just leave it?? Dunno what to do??? my craving have gone too.
    I really want to do this diet but if i won't lose due to my medications like cold medicine or birth control, than should i leave it??? Pls help!!!
    I have been such a good girl!!!

    Thanks

    No. You are good. Just keep going. It is a good sign that cravings are under control - sounds like things are on track.
    I would probably look for cough drops without sugar to have around for next time you need some. The other meds are fine.
    Congrats on feeling lighter

        Ditto what Liv said.
        Not a cough drop, but sipping hot lemon (with a bit of sweetner) helps me when I get a cough. Hope you feel better soon.

          Most chemists and even corner shops will have sugarfree cough sweets and lozenges, so maybe get some when you see them next so you are prepared for the next sore throat/cough/cold incident. They have quite a long 'shelf life'.

          I saw your losses so far - aren't you glad you didn't leave it?
          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!
