I'm on my 12th day of induction and let me tell ya, those first few days are torture. But I can't believe how positive I feel now. I don't really crave sweets anymore. My friend had a get together/movie night for her birthday the other night. She had cheesecake, sugar filled whipped topping and soda. She could not believe I turned it all down. "No thanks...I'll just have a bottle of water". I actually had a craving for deviled eggs yesterday..and guess what...I made one. As far as my appearance goes, I've never really thought of myself as pretty. Even when I was a size 5 I thought my hair was too stringy, my skin was to pale and pasty..etc etc. But now I totally feel great about my self. Even if I never see a size 5 again, it does'nt matter. In just a few days this way of life has changed me for the good.

So for anyone just starting out....keep with it. You will see positive changes...and believe me...not all of them will be physical.

Sorry I'm so excited... It's the ketosis talking...
