Re: Day 3

Sorry to hear that you are tired, and dizzy, but congrats on making this change in your life. I was a bit like that in the beginning as well, and I found many tips in the book. Including taking my vitamin supplements which seemed to get me on track. Anyway, just wanted to share what helped me. Hope to hear about your future success!!! Good Luck!

Congratulations on your loss.....it's best to stay off the scales since your weight may fluctuate from hour to hour during the day and also from day to day. It's best to wait until at least the end of the first week (hard I know but worth it). Just don't get addicted to stepping on the scales!!

Re: Day 3

Cheer up all, the Induction flu will pass soon and you will be feeling much more energetic. The good news is that you are definitely detoxing! But I remember when the doc told me that being nauseous when pregnant was a GOOD thing--no matter what he said, it never felt that good! Hopefully your are feeling better today.

Re: Day 3

I have a question lol

Can someone please tell me i Im taking in enough carbs?

today

Breakfast:
2 slces of bacon
2 eggs

lunch:
tuna in sunflower oil (trace carb) with mayo
cup of leafy salad and half a tomato

Dinner:
Steak with fried onion and one mushroom

Ive been reading the forum today and people are saying that its dangerous to eat too much protein and to make sure we get our 20grams of carbs. Do you think Im having enough carbs in the above menu? Ive drank 2 and a half litres of water today too! and ive used a ketostick which suggests Im in ketosis, I already had a feeling I was

Thanks again xxx

Re: Day 3

You do not need to aim for 20 carbs/day-it is a MAXIMUM. 3 cups of veggies per day is the rule - you are short on those Also, 1/2 of your daily carbs should come from veggies

Re: Day 3

which other types of veggies would you reccomend?!

[chinadoll]

Re: Day 3

2 cups of salad veggies such as cucumbers, various greens, radish, spinach, etc
and one cup of other non-starchy veggies such as green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, eggplant, asparagus, zucchini or yellow summer squash

stay away from carrots, corn, peas, yams, winter squash

Don't you have the 2002 DANDR? If not, go to the Induction forum for more information in the stickies there.

Re: Day 3

Re: Day 3

There should be a section that clearly outlines the veggies allowed during induction.
