Hello,

What a great forum! I'm on day 5 of induction - starting weight was 202.5 lbs, now at 194.5 - great! Just had a couple of boiled eggs and butter - yum!

It's good to be here!

Welcome and good luck. Keep up the good work

I love boiled eggs and mayo. Glad you are enjoying the board.
Congratulations on your losses. You're doing great.

Hi and welcome!!! Sounds likeyou're off to a great start.

*Eat a variety of meats, cheeses and vegetables. Also make sure you get your fats, carbs and protein in daily – www.fitday.com will help you keep track of this.
*Drink 64 ounces of pure water -nothing added daily (Legal water is considered Filtered water, Mineral water, Spring water and Tap water).
*Take your supplements and start an exercise routine today.

The Atkins shakes and bars are not legal on induction – there are non-induction ingredients in them and they are not listed on the acceptable food list. If a food isn’t listed on the acceptable food list it doesn’t belong in your mouth – no exceptions!

The recipe sites are a helpful meal planning tool – just make sure you use Induction Recipes to begin with.
