Just checking in, everybody!

OK. I feel good. The guilties are gone!

I've been back on track since the almond slip up, and I honestly think the pound will be gone on Friday when my roommate gives me the scale battery back again. Yes, it is true. I gave her the battery. I have also avoided all nuts since the "almond incident." I suspect I'll give 'em another try next week, but I was playing it safe for the rest of this one.

Thanks for all of the encouragement. I'm still here, and hope to be for a long while. I don't know that I've ever eaten this well over such a long period (sad to say, but 40 days on this plan really is the best I've eaten for at least several years--since I've been a "grown up," at least). So, I'm going to keep on keeping on, as they say.

Weird question for all you "long-termers": Has anyone ever been really cold when going back to a strict Induction after having added in a few items/carbs? I know it is winter, but my goodness I've been a regular popsicle for 3 days! Is this a metabolic thing, maybe?? Just curious!
