Re: am I doing anything wrong? | | There are days when your veggies are a bit off, bu otherwise it looks fine to me. For veggies, you should be eating 3 cups per day, with maximum 1 cup coming from the "Other Vegetables" list.
You lost 3 lbs out of 17 in one week of Induction. That's almost 18% of the weight you want to lose! The average is 5-10% after two weeks, so you are doing great.
__________________ "The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. 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!"
