Justready, this board is filled to the brim with support and so many wonderful ideas and recipes. I think this journey will be so much easier than all the other "diets" I have tried and failed. Good luck!

Hi kamon and twinkle:

I am on day 5 and i have loss 4 lbs. It was extremely difficult the first few days for me, headaches, no energy whatsoever. But by the 4th day, I started to feel like my oldself again....just lighter.

Scales have really been down right mean to me and I'm have tried almost starvation diets where I consume 700 calories a day and after a week of that I'd lose 1 pound, if that. I don't mind the sacrifice if I can see decent results...and 4 pounds in 5 days, I'll take it.

Hang in there, it really does get better. I have more energy now and I am so motivated that I can't wait to get home to my treadmill!

Best Wishes,
Rose

Thanks for sharing this with us. I was feeling a bit tired and moody today but then i weighed myself and i was 2 pounds lighter !! I promised myself i wont weigh before 14 days but it made me happy to see some loss. And glad to see that you got your energy back, i am a bit tired but i plan to go for a walk so hopefully that helps.

Welcome aboard Justready! Hang in there... it gets easier and easier as you go along. Soon you won't even miss those carby "treats" (so called).

Good luck!

Rose that is amazing progress! I have vowed not to weigh in until induction is over (I am also not a big fan of scales!). I am on day 3 and have had just a minor headache or two and some nausea, but it seems to be subsiding. Good luck on your "journey".
