Andie,

Unlike Angie and Kristine, I do have my floggers, paddles, crops, and canes handy. But I'm only going to tell you to go stand in the corner. Misbehaving on purpose to get a "punishment" - hah! I know that trick.

Kidding aside, what probably happened is you hit the plateau that happens after a few weeks of Induction. Weight loss isn't a "linear" function, but will fluctuate from day to day and week to week. Don't be discouraged. Just pick yourself up (or get out of the corner, whichever the case may be) and get right back on track. If you feel that low carb (but not induction) levels will be best for you until the holidays are over, go for it, but you may have better resistance to all the treats lying around if you go back to a clean induction and give those sugar cravings a "flogging". You do know about topping from the bottom, don't you? Use your dominant side and control those binges! You can do it!

Mistress Joan
