The fact that something is sugar free does not mean that we can eat it on induction. So you have to think about the rules. But with a sore throat
you may be off the hook a bit in my book
Milk is not on the induction list. Use full fat cream. Watch that artificial sugar intake. You are limited to three a day and if you are doing sugar free drops and splenda you are really over doing it.
I hope that helps a bit.
I think your body may be retaining water because you are eating a lot of salty processed stuff like bacon and sausage. Keep drinking plenty of water that will help.
And yes TOM will cause weight fluctuation.
Take a break from the scale. Perhaps you should join the scale free challenge?
