Hi
Been seeing you around the site, good luck on Induction. I've had great success on it so far, but I haven't cheated at all and don't want to.
Don't know what works for you, but I'll ask a few questions and let you think about 'em.
Are you drinking lots of water? Do
Getting any caffeine? Don't
Diet colas with aspartame? Don't
Nuts? Not yet
Lots of protein and even more fat? Do
Cutting calories? Don't (I'm eating tons! and losing)
Taking vitamins? Do
Exercising? Do, go for a 30 min walk every day
As for yeast, it's awful. Get a prescription. And is your blood sugar okay? If it's high, yeast can be a huge problem. So often we large girls have diabetes or insulin resistance and don't even know it. (Read my journal) Get it checked, it's important to know. Atkins does wonders for the blood sugar.
I believe there's some co-relation with going low-carb and having a yeast die-off. Get the meds and you'll get better.
DON'T CHEAT! There are so many wonderful, tasty fantastic foods out there. Just try something new every day and keep going-you'll make it!
Elaine
Let me know you got this
