Hi Sue:

Funny thing, I weighed 228 lb when I started the induction but gained 9 pounds afterwards (about two weeks). I'm delighted! Sue, I used to work out like a maniac but university dampened my resolve for the last eight years or so.

Yup, I know most dieters would cringe but at 228 I was ~23.3% body fat. Now I'm down to 21.9% body fat. That's a heluva of a lot of fat loss and an incredible gain of muscle. I'm on cloud nine.

Good luck Sue!
