    My 14 day induction has ended....

    Well... I have completed my 14 day induction and I am glad to say that I have lost 12 pounds total. So I still have 88+ to lose. My goal is to reach 165 but depending on how I feel at that weight, I will decide if I should keep losing or stay at that weight. I don't see myself as being a skinny girl... I am Latin so my DH loves some meat on me and I do to. SO I figure 165 should do. But I am happy with my acheivment so far. I am going to stay on Extended Induction... Maybe until I reach 225 then I will move to OWL.

    I just wanted to share my acheivment. It was hard but well worth it. The first checkoff list on DANDR.. I think I checked off everything down the list.... about being tired and sick, etc.... Now I did the check list again... WOW, what a difference. I feel great, so much better with so much energy!!!. iI sleep so much better and my clothes is getting loose. I don't say after I eat "I'm about to blow up"!

    Thanks for eveyone's aupport. I am glad I found this site.

                  Great work!!
                  Congratulations on those 12 pounds shed already
                  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!!

                              Thanks eveyone for their support. Yesterday I felt hungrier than usual and I went to the fridge and realized that I didn't have any low carb snacks. I have bunch of vegetables but I ususally perfer with dinner or lunch. SO I ran to the store and bought me some mozzerella cheese sticks. ANd it was so good. so I was happy I didn't settle for something from my pantry... that's a first.

                                  You are doing great! I am on day 5 of my Return to Induction. I have lost about 2 pounds, but I am a slow loser.
                                  The best thing is all of those "checklist" items--sleeping better, more energy, less bloated feeling. Even though my losses are always slow, I feel so much better eating this way.
                                  Congrats on the trip to the store. You ran into a huge obstacle that might have derailed your progress, and made you feel guilty and terrible, and you handled it with determination. You should be proud!

                                      I never really had a weight loss goal because I had no idea what I was going to look like as I lost weight. I used to tell people my goal is to be healthy and as far as the weight, I'd know it when I saw it.

                                      Keep up the great work.

                                          Just remember OWL Rung 1 is 5 additional net carbs of vegetables -- it will give you a little more variety and there is no need to rush up the Rungs.....good luck on the rest fo your journey.
