wow thanks for the posting! i'm starting my induction phase tomorrow and i really needed to read that! i was wondering - you said that you cut out dairy? do you still eat cheese? i find that i have to limit my cheese intake too. but since i'm a vegetarian, i find that i need a little bit of cheese in my food plan for varieties.

you're brave enough to share your diet with other people. i get that a lot in the past when i did LC too. then people scared me with all the unhealthy stats and i went off the diet. i don't do the diet to lose weight actually. but i find that when i am on the other "balanced" diet, i tend to obsess with what i eat and i never feel satisfied. the carbs had harmed me more mentally, than physically.

please keep us posted with your progress
