Hmm... you have been the only person so far to think that the pics look the same. I can certainly see a difference.

And now I'll take this opportunity to vent a bit: For the life of me, I don't understand the attitude of "it was just water weight" when referring to initial weight loss during Induction. (I'm not talking just about this post... I see this reference often).

SO WHAT if it is water weight? It is still weight. I know from experience that when I am holding water weight, my clothes are too tight. When I lose the water weight, my clothes then fit. I don't see the point in dismissing the loss of water weight... if she hadn't been following Induction, the water weight would still be there, and she would look larger.

Vent over.

Hi esor,
As you can see, most of us are passionate about this journey. Some, not so much.
Girl, speaking from experience, I can certainly see a difference. Especialy around you mid section. Did you measure? I love the tape measure. Such a better friend than the metal monster.
Every time I lost ten pounds, I went down a size. Especially the closer I got to goal.
Keep up the fantastic work you're doing for yourself. Not only are you losing the weight (fat/water/toxins), you're getting healthier internally.
Wishing you the best of health and lite. I look forward to watching your progress.
Sincerely, Sherri

I think she moved on. She and her family were doing their own version of Atkins (per her posts). I hope she's doing well...she certainly had great initial results.

Bye bye belly! Keep up the good work! As time goes on the weight won't fall off quite as quickly, but don't get discouraged! Just remember how fantastic you feel now!!

Please ignore this post! You look and have done fantastic, so far. I'm sure you'll continue to do so in the months to come! I can't wait to see what you like at 1 month in... I'll be lookin forward to following your progress!
