Question Average Weight Loss??

Just curious, but what has been everyone's average weight loss during the 14 day induction? Did you gain any back after induction phase? Any inches lost?

I didnt gain any back after the induction phase, but to answer your original question, I dont actually remember how much I lost in the the first 2 weeks of my "journey" as it was so long ago.

But no, I didnt gain any of it back.

9 pounds. Didn't gain anything back because I continued with the diet. Didn't lose any inches for a very long time. In fact, it wasn't until I dropped my first 30 pounds that I went down a size or two.

Weight loss, btw, is a very individual thing. Most of us can expect to lose 5-10% of the weight we need to lose during the first 14 days. So if you need to lose 100 pounds, you can expect to lose 5-10 pounds. If you need to lose 10 pounds, expect a 1/2 to 1 pound loss. Of course, these results depend on how faithfully you follow the diet. If you don't exercise, don't drink all your water, and sneak bites of illegal food, then you can't expect to lose as much as you would had you followed it properly.

I think I lost 8 lbs on induction, and I can't remember how many inches, but I haven't gained any of it back. I did have a pause in my weight loss between weeks 3 & 4, so I moved into OWL and consistently lost 1 or 2 lbs a week eating all kinds of variety of food. YAY!

My first time on induction, I lost 17 pounds. The second time I lost 14 pounds. Between my first and second induction, I did gain weight back, but that's ONLY because I didn't follow the plan. If you stick with the plan, you won't gain any back, you'll continue to lose.
