Drum Roll Please!!!!!

I am happy to report that following my 14 day induction I weighed this morning and lost an unbelievable (for me anyway) 10 pounds.

A big thank you to everyone on this board who share so readily of their experiences and expertise in this WOE. You guys are AWESOME!!!

I also remeasured myself and have lost a whopping 8.25 inches which is further proof that this WOE works wonders.

For anyone reading this that is on the fence about trying Atkins, I encourage you to GO FOR IT because if it works for me it will work for you. I think it works because it is not too hard to stick to the plan since you are never seriously hungry and can eat until you are satisfied. What personally helped me was eliminating all diet soda for the 14 day period, drinking 93 ounces of water every day, eating mostly just the veggies from the salad list (they fill you up and prevent constipation ). I have almost zero willpower but I can honestly say I was never seriously tempted to cheat during induction and my biggest personal challenge was going 14 days with NO ALCOHOL

Anyway, thanks again to everyone for their help and support.

Fantastic job Pam! Great work!

So are you sticking on induction or joining us over in the OWL forums?

Great job... my 14 days is coming up here on Monday so I can't wait to see what my results are. I am also curious to know whether you are going on to OWL or stayin on induction? Also are you trying to quit drinking soda or does the diet soda have extra hidden things in there?

Wonderful news. I feel the same way. It is so amazing that it (something) works. I started my induction a month ago and am in OWL and I still think it is just amazing.

That's fantastic! Congratulations! Woo hoo! I bet you feel great! That's so great to get started before the holidays instead of putting it off for New Years... and wtg on the no alcohol! That was hard for me too... but so much better for us and worth it!
