Thx for the note! I was working out for about 2 months prior to starting induction - I considered that I might be building muscle mass and that offsets any fat loss on the scale. Am I correct in my understanding that once someone is in K, as long as K is maintained then the carb count is low enough...is this true.

I use a journal at home - Yesterday's menu is typical:

B - 3 cups of decaf coffee, 2 oz of cheddar cheese and 4 oz of roast beef
L - Greek Salad (2 cups) with vin/oil dressing, 1 oz of feta cheese, olives, 6 oz of lamb
D - 3 broiled 6 oz pork chops
All day - 6+ qts of water, no snacks, 4 Kstix tests - all positive!

I actually see a change in shirt fit but not pants/waist size - Others have commented that I'm visibily thinner around my face...I thought they were trying to be encouraging with those remarks! Again, I just trying to determine if I have a warped metabolisim or just being impatient! Stay the course or try something a bit different/radical? enb
