Hi CraftyGirl,
I agree fitday is a great tool I also go to the Atkins Center to journal but fitday is the best way to see exactly what you are doing right or wrong.
I was wondering if you are using L-Glutamine Dr. A. says it helps with carb cravings mainly sugar, I think he says 500mg. with meals don't have my book here.
Nuts are a nono while you are on induction some fruit like strawberries or blueberries might be a better way to add carbs. after induction, or more vegetables. I would really watch the bars and shakes they really can cause problems. I have a hard time losing I just have gone through my umpteen time on induction lost 6 pounds and promply stalled one of my friends calls it the 3 week stall after induction it's very common and the time most of us give up. I am back to basic's no shakes,bars or cheese cakes some people even have to watch the Aspartame in sugarfree jello. Good luck, Pat S
