Default Re: Move to OWL or "fix" induction?

Don't lower your fat, Jane. Unless you are eating when not hungry or stuffing yourself at meals without giving your belly enough time to say "Jane, stop eating", then you're doing okay.

It is quite common to see a pause in your weight loss after the first 14 days or so. Some of us manage to break it by moving to OWL and adding a few more veggies to our Induction menus.

Are you exercising and taking your vitamins? What are your average fat/carbs/protein percentages?

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!"
