Question What am I doing wrong?

I started induction on Sunday (4 days) and I have not lost weight. I know there are a few things that I have done wrong, but I want to correct those so I do not waste time. I have read the book, but it is soooo much to take in. Below is what I have been eating and daily exercise.

Sunday
B/L - Hamburger (no bun) with cheese
D - Grilled Chicken Breast, Salad with tomatoes, bacon, cheese and blue cheese dressing

E - Walked a mile

Monday
B - 2 hard-boiled eggs (whites only - don't like yolk)
L - Chicken, cheese, salsa (homemade - no sugar)
D - Bacon and cheese

E - Elliptical - 30 minutes

Tuesday
B - 2 hard-boiled eggs (whites only - don't like yolk)
L - Grilled chicken, cheese and tomato
D - Bacon, cheese and tomato
S - Peanuts

E - Elliptical - 30 minutes

Wednesday/Today
B - Didn't have time to eat breakfast
L - Turkey and Salad with bacon, cheese, bacon, tomato and blue cheese dressing
D - Not sure yet

Things I know I'm doing wrong after reading the message boards today:
1. Probably not drinking enough water.
2. Too much cheese.
3. Not enough fat.
4. Shouldn't have eaten peanuts.

Questions that I have:
1. Is it ok to drink decaffeinated tea with splenda and count that as water intake?
2. Do you have to eat the 2-3 cups of veggies a day?
3. What if you don't really like veggies very much? On the list I really only like lettuce and tomato.
4. Can you eat green beans?
5. How much do people usually lose during induction?
6. Can you eat all beef hot dogs with one carb ketchup?
7. What about pepperoni?

I know I am going to have to start preparing meals better and looking at recipes because I can't eat the same thing over and over and over.
Any and all comments are welcome.


Thanks!
