Thanks for your support guys!!
I have been on this WOE for about 2 months. I lost around 11lbs during induction, then went through quite a slump for a few weeks. I still try to stay under 25g carbs per day. I must admit though, i am not very good at drinking water, and i am sure if i did, the weight loss would be more smooth. I am also a diet soda drinker, and am not above eating the occassional Russell Stover sugarfree candy. Sometimes i wish i was a purist - but if this is going to be a WOL, i have to be able to have a treat every now and then, and not beat myself up for wanting it.
As for the cravings, they really do diminish. Sometimes i will walk by a bakery, and think 'mmmm i wish i could have hotcross buns'. but then i realize - i can have them, i just choose not to. It is strange how your body switches from craving bad junk all the time, to wanting the 'good' stuff that is still restricted. I miss my milk and cereal. I miss my heaping bowl of fruit salad... Other than that, i think that this WOE is so rich, i don't really feel like i am missing out on much else!
My main struggle has been losing lbs but not inches. I can't weight for the InchFairy to pay me a visit
