Is there anything I can do to boost the weight loss in the next 10 days? | Nope, not really... The best thing you can do is follow all the Rules of Induction and combine your cardio exercises with some strength training. Take body measurements too---often we lose inches even when our weight stays the same. It's inches that will make that dress less tight, not necessarily the number on the scale. Quote: |
Also, does anyone know about beansprouts and net carbs?

You can see that bean sprouts are on the "Other Vegetables" list, so you are allowed to have 1 cup of them, assuming that day you eat no other foods from the "Other Vegetables" list.

BTW, for the stir fry, what sauce are you planning to use?

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!"
