I don't have a problem with doing things "by the book." I never even said to avoid induction. I only said to be careful and to do it on the weekend. If you don't know what induction is like, it can take you by surprise. And you definitely don't want to go to work with the flu. But you wouldn't know because you've never experienced it.

My fitday average for the week is 82.4g carbs minus 16.1g fiber = 66.3g net carbs. I lost 4.5 lbs just this week.

You can't just tell everyone you know or don't know to just do induction like it's no big deal. IT'S A BIG DEAL. How do you even know that OP read the book? Don't you think it's unwise to just tell people to go on induction when they don't know what could happen?

I know there are very insulin sensitive individuals out there who swell with just a few carbs. But are you telling me that most people will get fat by eating 3-4 pieces of toast per day? Because that's 50 carbs right there. GIMME A BREAK.
