As I have said, most people who are on this board and complained about "Induction flu" were capable to do their normal activities and got over it in 1-3 days. Furthermore, if one is badly affected by the "flu", he or she should follow Dr. Atkins' advice and add another cup of vegetables or a few nuts, not eat 50-70 g of carbohydrate. Quote: |
Now of course, I went through induction last week and I can definitely say that I don't want to be DRIVING A CAR or anything while under induction flu, but hey don't mind me. I only have 6 posts under my name and you've got thousands so you must be right.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
