WooHoo, this is really working!!

Today is day 24 of Induction for me and I am down 18 pounds. I am sooo excited because this is the point that I usually backslide. I start thinking, yeah, I can do this, I can cheat and then go back.... NOT this time. I am pumped to be doing Atkins and this train is NOT stopping for anyone. I feel so good right now. I have finally had my lightbulb moment - There is nothing that I can eat that is worth the way I feel about myself fat. Nothing. I am truly done with my old woe. It is so liberating.

Yipee!!

Weigh to go!!!!!!

good for you. I hope you hit the 2 instead of the 1 and it is day 14 for you and not 24 cause on day 24 you should be in the extended induction forum if you are doing induction still. SO are you moving to OWL or doing extended induction? if you aren't sure be sure to read chapter 13 of your DANDR and answer those questions. based on your answers you will know if it is time to move on or stay longer.

Happy low carbing.

I am doing extended induction. Does it really matter if I post here or there though??

Only in that you are more likely to 'meet' people also on extended induction in the forum dedicated to that stage of Atkins.

I think the idea of having two separate forums, one for the first 14 days of induction and one for those who decide to stay on induction longer is that the problems of a 'new' inductioneer are slightly different to those that attack someone who has been on induction for a year or so.

Before the forums were split many Atkins 'newbies' got confused when people posted about their personal adaptations on longterm induction, or even started to think they HAD to extend their induction instead of moving to OWL after the first 14 days.

Hello . . .

I am on extended inductin as well........but I do cruise both induction boards.

I find that I can be really motivated by some of the posts submitted by people just starting out. They are soooooooo very excited about the progress they make that it continues to motivate me. Also the stories of people who cheat, and how badly they feel continue to re-affirm why I will not cheat. It isn't worth it.

I generally only respond on the 14 day board.....and post on extended though.

Just thought I'd share that......

Jesteroo, that is exactly how the forums are supposed to work.

In fact we rely on members with more experience chipping in with advice and encouragement on all the forums, whaterver stage of Atkins they are on themselves.

Thank you for doing your bit of 'paying it forward' to other members of ADBB.
