 Re: 6 days into the induction phase..... | |
WOW! 9.5.08 was my start date too. So far I have lost about 9 lbs also. To stave off my comfort food cravings I have been making the Mock Danish muffins. They taste close enough, are filling and certainly curbed my sweet tooth. From what I have read it is a induction friendly receipe.
I have decided the only way this diet will become a lifestyle is if I start cooking for myself. I am in no way form or manner a cook so this should be interesting. I have been printing out receipes before lunch and I buy all of the missing items at lunchtime so I have what I need to make dinner. I bring my lunch to work lately I have been alternating between chicken salad and tuna salad. No bread naturally. I find adding fresh chopped parsley and freshly grated parmesan cheese to the salads gives it a more interesting flavor then plain mayo+tuna. Oh ya, I also find using Helminz's (sp?) new Olive Oil flavored Mayo makes a HUGE difference.
Keep up the good work! My starting weight was 258.8 on 9.5 my goal is 195 by Jan.09 I am 6'1" (if that makes a difference)  |
