Thanks for all the yummy suggestions!
I find myself doing just what Mike was doing..wanting something sweet. I think it has to do with all the salty foods I eat (ie, bacon, cheese, pepperoni, etc) and my old habits was to grab something sweet instantly afterwards. I have fended it off for the most part...thank goodness!
I think the fear I have with getting out of the induction phase is that I feel like I didn't lose enough weight (as I have two more whole days till I'm at day 15). I know it sounds horrible but I am one of those people who want to see definite results as soon as possible. I know that I am in for the long haul here--I don't want to fail. I think that doing another week of Induction will be good for me because I want to learn to eat better without carbs. Adding them back right now seems a bit intimidating. My DH's sister did Atkins a few years back and she went all "hard core" and lost a lot of weight--which is great if you don't do what she did. She never got out of Induction...for 5 months she was in the induction phase and that resulted with her getting her gal bladder taken out. I want to be dedicated but with a healthy mind set. So it's one more week..then I think I'll be able to progress into the next phase.
Anyhow, my son's 8th birthday is Saturday..we are planning to go bowling--I'm glad I'm over my flu..or I wouldn't be able to lift a bowling ball!
Night night everyone.
