When I went through Induction my first time (1997), I lost 20 lbs right away! I had 75 to lose back then so I did a couple more weeks, and lost about 10. Then I went to OWL, and stalled for almost 6 months, and finally lost another 10 after that. At the time, I decided to stay at Maintenance due to a stressful divorce, and finally decided to restart in March this year after regaining 10 pounds (from high carbing over 6 months). Of course, this time I lost 2 pounds on Induction and stalled for about 3 weeks before I found out I was pregnant. So my last 40 pounds will have to wait - but hang in there. Stalls will happen, and I actually think that's a good thing because your body meters out losing the weight and you're more likely to keep it off.
