Then the next day go right back to the induction / low carb way of eating for another 2 weeks, etc.... etc. Anyways, I haven't seen her all summer, and just saw her last night at a party, and since May, she has lost 42 lbs!!! I think that is amazing. Any thoughts to this "carb cycling" as she called it? I really had never heard about it until last night!
Thanks,
Sue

just be aware that 'carb cycling' is not atkins.
