Congrats for the 3 lbs!
Don't be afraid to add back foods. Unless we add them back in a controlled manner, as we do on OWL, there's no way to tell if you have an intolerance to any of them. Also, you might have an intolerance to a food only if cooked a certain way or eaten raw, or only in combination with other food(s). Or you might have an intolerance only to a brand, but not to the food in general. I found it really useful to keep a food journal in OWL; it makes it easier to notice this kind of things.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"

(always a bonus) and believe it or not EASY. As long as i had the food available and i did, not once did i cheat. I have tried so many diets and have lost weight but it was sooooo hard 
. This wasnt at all. The days just blew by. I am continuing the induction only cause honestly after not eating all the junk im afraid to eat anything differntly. I'll do this for a month then go on the OWL. Adding slowly. My thinking is that i have an allergy to most of the items I've stopped eating so we'll see.
