What do you do for excercise. Whats really helped me is walking with my iPod before bed. I was initially doing just a morning walk/jog...and when I started doing one before bed,,,,it made a huge difference in my mood. Also....really and I mean really keep your water up...Walmart has a great carb free bubbly water with no sodium and in so many different flavors....makes you feel like you're having something naughty on induction, but doesnt hurt you.

Just a caution on the sugar free jello and Walmart drink. I believe they both have aspartame, which Dr. Atkins discouraged us from using as it was a known staller for about 25% of his patients. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
As someone often says here, the best way to satisfy your sweet tooth is to yank it out, not feed it. You'd be shocked at how much a sweets craving will dissipate (or disappear completely) by removing artificial sweeteners from one's diet. I was a skeptic, that's for sure. But now, 63 cheat-free days later without a single packet of Splenda or artificially flavored anything, I can't bring myself to eat anything sweet.
