I lost 8 my first 8 days then gained it for cheating. Then lost 10 the 2nd week.

Keep up the good work.

The first few are going to be water weight...you will notice you feel lighter and your clothes fit better cause you are not bloated. Then, you will lose actual fat. I have been on for three week, so far I lost about 9 lbs altogether and last time I measured myself (a week ago) I had lost one inch each off my chest, waist and hips.

I lost a total of about 8 in the first 2 weeks, but remember, its an individual thing. It really depends on your metabolic resistance, doing a true induction, and exercise really makes a big difference. Best of luck!!!! You are doing great!

I have done induction a few times now...and it seems that every time, I lose 14 pounds in 14 days. It's weird, I lost 10 pounds the first 7 days and then 4 pounds the next 4 days...all adds up to about a pound a day for me for induction. I'm a big guy though!

I lost 4 the first week 2 the next then for a month after that I would lose 1/2 pound and 1 pound alternating weeks. Then I had a woosh and lost 2 1/2 pounds. Now some weeks I lose and some I don't. It is an individual thing. What counts is that you are steadily going down.

I lost 13lbs in the first week and then didn't lose anything for the next 1.5 weeks. However, my body shape was changing so all is good.

I lost 15 lbs the first two weeks. After those first 15, I stalled and had to actually start exercising.
