    starting sunday may 10

    Greetings,
    I have to clean cupboards and go shopping this weekend and so plan to start Sunday May 10. I really could use a sponsor, pen pal, guardian for this process. A female over 50 years old who had at least 40 lbs to lose, or would like to lose with me. I just know if I have a buddy things will be easier.

    Any advice on clearing stuff from the kitchen and what to make certain to have on hand. I work in an office, and travel a great deal so thoughts to help thru the day would be appreciated as well.

    Re: starting sunday may 10

    Just wanted to say welcome. I do not know if you have seen our 50+ forum here. That may be a great place to read and post. Also try to post in the induction forum and see if any friends pop up there.
    I hid things in the kitchen that I used to just pick up and eat because it was right there. Like granola bars and cookies and stuff. If you have a problem food I would certainly clear that one.
    We had a couple of travelling threads lately you may do a search and see if you can find one. A small cooler is great if you drive or take the train. I like to bring meat left overs, cut up veggies, boiled eggs, revolution rolls (if I have to buy burgers) when I am on the road. Do you have to travel far?

      Hi Bristol. I am also (originally) a PA girl and am in your age range (4. I love this way of eating! I am losing slowly but steadily and feel better than I have in years! Wishing you great success!

        Thank you both. We went thru the fridge and the kitchen last night. I do find myself planning a "last meal" and I totally am freking out about no 2% milk for a while. Im a grownup who considers milk yummy. Sigh, I want the induction phase to work and then we will work on owl.....

          Have your milk now. Thing is on Atkins I think most of us change our food preferences (after all they are just habits) and we are completely fine. So no need to worry too much.
