Roll Call 10/15/09

I'm here and accounted for. The scale moved down another half pound yesterday, yay. I'm hoping I'm on a loosing streak again and no more 9 days without moving down for a long while. Today is day 14 of a perfectly clean re-induction and I'm planning to move to OWL rung 1 tomorrow. I have started this diet so many times and always tell myself if I stay in Induction longer I'll loose more weight quicker, but you know what happens? I get bored and go off plan after 6-8 weeks. So this time I'm climbing the ladder to see if that can help me stick it out for a life time.

I took the weight I need to loose and divided it by the number of rungs + premaintenance, and it equals 8. So that means every eight pounds I will move up a rung as long as I've spent at least a week on the previous one. I'm hoping this plan will work. I'm not even so anxious to increase my carbs beyond 20, I just think a little more variety will help me make this a life time woe. The only thing in dairy I'm looking forward to is an occasional yogurt, yummmmm......

I do miss yogurt! I was in 'extended induction' for 8 months - just moved to OWL 10/1 - not noticing too much yet, since I really like vegetables, but looking forward to the next rung.

I'm at the same weight as yesterday - but not concerned. Extremely bad 'keto' breath - so know I'm doing ok.

Here. Still sick, but still OP. I haven't weighed yet. Today is day 5. I may check out the scale on Sunday, but maybe not.

Hi all! I totally agree about the yogurt. I miss it! I still buy it for my sons because it's a healthy snack they love to eat.....but it's not easy.
Had some grilled fish with Mrs. Dash and butter for dinner....YUM!!!

I did the elliptical earlier today and I'm going to go walk in a little while but not too far as I'm feeling kindof tired today. What day are you guys weighing in on here?
