Induction for 6 days

[boodizzle]

I have been doing induction for 6 days and I am down 5 pounds. Feels like alot of other people lose alot faster than this although I am very happy with 5 but I am sure it is water weight. I just remembered I am about a week away from TOM so maybe that has something to do with it. I have had no cheats and am proud of that. Only thing I am confused about are the vegies....so if I understand it right you can only have 2/3 cup of the other vegies but you have to have 2 cups of the first group. Not 3 cups of any of them...am I right?

Hey Boo!

Congrats on your 5 pounds gone!

Yes you are right, 2 cups of "salad veggies" (lettuces, pepper, cucumber, celery etc) and 1 cup of "other" veggie (broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus etc).

Don't sweat the rate at which you lose, we are all different! Just stick to plan and the weight will come off!

Hey, Boodizzle--5 lbs in 6 days is great! Yeah, it might be water weight, but I think the book says that your body holds more water to process all the bad stuff we consume before Atkins. Once on this WOE, we don't need it anymore so it goes bye-bye. (Someone please correct me if I got this wrong--I don't want to spread misinformation)

And week before TOM, too? You are doing *fab*! Just wait til a couple of weeks pass

Welcome, and good luck!
