Purple on the sticks indicates to me you are dehydrated - how much water (PURE water - nothing added) do you drink daily?

If you have cole slaw and wingstop on Monday's and Fridays I would say that could be a real factor in you not loosing weight.......

Cole slaw has sugar in it.....and the wings are probably breaded so both are no-no's for "induction".....

I'd go back to being more strict on your food (didn't you have a few beers last week or is my memory failing me?) and mix up your exercise - your body may be getting use to the same thing over and over.

As far as not taking supplements the DANDR book says to supplement during induction when our bodies are changing....

Try to get your carbs right up to the 20 mark daily - vary your menu's so you aren't eating the same thing over and over....and get back on track 7 days a week, not 5 days a week.

I'm back on track and losing again. I drink 150 oz of water a day, and consume 9 different supplements.

Are you insinuating something, John?

So how much did the scale go down? I guess it was the scale, not the measuring tape...
