Finally, I'm up and running. Netscape can be a real pain sometimes. Thanks mom and dad for the feedback, beats waiting for Mark to get home from work...YEAH!!

Yesterday was my last day on the ‘Induction Phase' of my diet, and I’m still feeling great, despite the cold I have…UGH!! I’m still moderately purple and my energy is still improving. My cold tires me out a bit, but it’s not dragging me down. I go on to the OWL phase now. I’m still going to watch my carbs carefully, even though I can increase them a little. I don’t want to ruin what I’ve accomplished up to this point. According to Atkins, I have an ‘average’ resistance. I've lost another 1”BWH. Here are my “END OF INDUCTION STATS” --

Current Weight: 260/253/251
Pounds lost or gained: minus 2 lbs. (9 lbs. total)

That was weighing myself at 4:30 this AM when I woke up -- cold -- I went back to sleep and woke up at 8:00 and the scales read 250, instead of 251. I'm sticking with 251 though, till 250 stays awhile

Have a great one!!

P.S. I've been having some gas pains in my abdomen -- any suggestions? The usually method doesn't seem to be working and I'm not sure if an over-the-counter aid would hurt or hinder. Thanks.
