| Hi Kathy, I'm starting tonight after hitting a bump in the road. I know it works and I'm excited to get back on it. Do you mind me asking what's on your grocery list? My grocery list usually only consists of eggs, splenda, and chicken :-/ so it gets kind of boring for me. Thanks! Chels |

| I started today and I was so excited to get underway. I ate everything induction approved and think that I will be able to stick with this fairly easily. I hope that this goes the way I think it will, or at least hope it will. Good luck to everyone starting this week. |

| My husband is starting today too. I started a couple of weeks ago and was doing the diet wrong so I have restarted again myself. We went grocery shopping today and this is what we got... Chicken breasts Salmon I bought everything to make the Atkins Jalapeno Poppers recipe Lettuce Shredded cheese for on top of our salads Real Bacon Bits for on top of our salads Blue Cheese Dressing (make sure there is NO sugar in it at all!!!) Aquafina Bottled waters (12oz size) Avecados (these get ripe fast so make sure to pay attention to them) Sizzling sausages (not maple kind cuz that has sugar) Sugar free Maple syrup to put on the sausages (Yummy!) Potassium Suppliments (get these for sure!!!) Liquid Splenda Sugar Free Barbaque sauce Sugar Free ketchup Hamburger (I am going to try and make some meat balls with the sugar free Barbaque sauce tonight in my crockpot. Cheese slices (NO SUGAR AT ALL! not even < 1 gram) Eggs (I eat an omlet every morning for breakfast even if it sounds horrible to me because it starts me out well for the day because it is such a good filler) Onion (I put this in my omlet sometimes otherwise I add it to my soups) Hot Sauce Chicken broth in a can (NO SUGAR!) to make soup Celery (I love to put flavored cream cheese on celery stix for a snack) I know that Simon Delivers offers a flavored cream cheese that has no sugar. Roast Beef lunch Meat (You spread a little cream cheese on it and then roll it up into a little burrito (these are good but you can change the kind of lunch meat if you want, it doesn't have to be roastbeef. There are a bunch of ideas for you to try. Lisa

| Hi all, I too am starting induction on Wed 2nd Jan 08 I look forward to sharing experiences etc. One bit of advice I have come accross is to make sure we measure our inch loss as we may not loose alot of weight, it may show with the inch loss?

| Make sure you all get your veggies in! When people first start they tend to focus on the meat, eggs, and cheese but your veggies are super important. |

| I made some fajitas without the wrap that were really delish & induction friendly! Filet Mignon or Stir Fry chicken strips with sour cream, Franks Hot Sauce, topped with Guacamole (Avocado, Cilantro, Onion, Tomatoe & Lime) |

| Don't get the sugar free barbaque sauce because it is discusting in my opinion! But the kitchup is ok. Lisa
