my 3rd day of induction

So far so good but the bottom of me feet are cramping.... what could this mean?

Might mean you need potassium. Mortons lite salt works great.

Welcome to ADBB. Hope your feet get to feeling better. Hows the Induction going other than your feet? How does the rest of you feel? Mentally and physically? Any change in energy levels yet? Just curious.

yea i want a sugar dohnut like never before. Im sooooo tired today and scared im going to eat something bad. yesterday i was full of energy

OK, first take a deep breath, then make sure ur drinking your water. I was advised to eat something high in fat when that happened to me, and it actually worked. That tired feeling is gonna be replaced with energy. Day 11 seems very easy, thank God, and yes you will get there. My first 3 days of induction were tough at times but by day four I felt great. Everyone's journey through Induction is different but now my sweet cravings are almost nothing any my energy level has tripled. Trust me, prior to Induction, I would have chosen chocolate cake over a steak anytime. Breathe through today, make sure your not allowing yourself to get hungry and most importantly, drink your water, its key. You can do this, great things are yet to come.

I ate pork rinds, but I love them. I melted some cheese on them and then topped if off with some louisiana hot sauce. mmmmmmmmm Do you like pork rinds?
