Re: this is me

well extended induction was a horrible idea..i have the WORST atkins flu ever and can't seem to shake it..it feels like my immune system was just slammed. I lost 8 lbs in one week then BOOM! sick as a dog...

this has happened to me before on diets (not just atkins) my body just freaks when i lose any weight. I have been trying to figure out why and how can i get through it w/o stopping the diet and gaining back any weight I've lost plus as always those couple extra lbs)

anyone have any ideas?

Re: this is me

It's definitely not induction flu at this point. But why don't you move up the rungs and stay on extended induction?

I don't know why you feel lousy, I'm one of those that never experienced the induction flu. The only things I can think of - do you drink enough water? are you constipated?

Detox!!!! Your body needs to flush!!! Drink tons of water!!! Are you doing a colon cleanse or anything when you get like this? Fiber fiber fiber and water water water!!!
