Thanks so much for that suggestion, LilaCotton. I have my handy tape measure sitting next to me, as a matter of fact. As I am counting today as "day 1" of the induction diet, I weighed and measured myself this morning. I'm probably going to wait until next Monday to weigh/measure again, as I do tend to get discouraged if I'm not losing weight every 5 minutes (even though I KNOW it's not really possible to do that).
