The scale finally moved!
The scale finally moved after thirteen days on induction.
I started Atkins on Mother's day switching from Six Week Body Makeover. I had already lost 30 pounds on this plan during the six weeks before making the switch.
During the first four days I dropped three pounds, but then read about his recommendation not to take prescription diuretics. Since I was on this for swelling not anything life threatening I stopped it. I quickly gained back the three pounds I lost, and then some.
For the last 10 days I have been up and down up and down on the scale and up until yesterday was at the same weight as when I started. Today, Praise the Lord! the scale was down THREE POUNDS! I was so excited I felt like doing a little happy dance.
Everyone was so supportive when I posted with the "stall". I hung in there and it finally broke.
Hopefully, this will be the beginning for me.
