well, we survived induction...

[scarlett873]

DH lost nearly 10 pounds! he looks great too!!! it all came off from around his midsection, and that was the area that he was most concerned about. if you knew him and saw him on a daily basis, you would actually see a pretty dramatic difference!

me, on the other hand...

i lost 7 pounds!!!! woo hoo!!!!! i don't know where it came offof though. my clothes don't feel looser really...my measuring day is tuesday...i started on a tuesday and decided that i will measure myself every 7 days, just to see any progress.

DH has decided to stay on induction for awhile longer. i'm going to obviously eat right along with him, but i am choosing to add just a few things that i couldn't have during induction for snacks when i need them.

Congrats, Brandie!!!! Great news for both you and your hubby!

You will find with working out that your body shape will change. It happens gradually but the results are worth it!!

Good Job Brandie....I know this was a "rough" spot for you. 7lbs is awesome to lose in 2 weeks...just think how awful you would feel if you GAINED THAT much weight in 2 weeks!! You have done a GREAT JOB staying on plan.

Keep it up...and stay POSITIVE!!!

I wanna join

I have had success over the years with WW, but I hate the new point system. I wish I could find an old menu plan with the #servings per day. Anyways, I've decided to try Atkins, but I haven't purchased a book yet. Where did you all get your plan?

We are planning a late November trip to Disney and I would like to lose 30 lbs by then. Ultimately, I need to lose about 60 lbs. So sign me up!!

Way to go, cutie! That is an awesome first week of induction! Don't forget to post to the check in thread, that way, even if a WISHer only has 5 minutes next Friday to read WISH, they will be able to celebrate your success

Congratulations, Brandie!! That is great news! I felt that Induction was the hardest for me as the headaches were the worst! LOL

Good for you and keep up the good work!

 

[scarlett873]

i didn't really have many headaches...well, not anything out of the ordinary. it's my TOM so i always have pretty nasty headaches the week before. i had a whopper of a headache tonight, but took something and laid down and it's not so bad anymore...

adams66...we started out based on word of mouth from co-workers and then we got everything else from the internet at www.atkins.com. induction was hard for me...but i survived! once i figured out that i didn't have to deny myself completely, i did much better. we tried a bunch of recipes we found online..most of them here! and we discovered some snacks we could have...and CHEESECAKE!!!! lol...good luck!

 

[adams66]
