Rachel, did you read the book? Just curious since the description of Induction is pretty clear.
It is only two weeks, and it is worth it. Like Serrelind said, the purpose of Induction is to detoxify your body. It will also get your appetite and cravings under control. BTW..you CAN live without breading on your chicken for two weeks.
Try coating your chicken with something else like grated parmesan cheese or crushed pork rinds. I like to cover mine with mayonaise. I add seasoned salt to a half cup of mayo and stir until it turns orange. Then I spread it all over the tops of the chicken pieces before I bake them. It keeps the chicken moist on the inside, and makes the skin crispy. My family loves it too.
I have also fried boneless skinless chicken breasts with no coating and they turned out fine. I cut them thin so they cook quickly on the inside before drying out on the outside. Sometimes they can get a little hard like jerky in spots...but I like it like that anyway.
I don't find Induction food choices to be boring...but I love veggies. If you are having a hard time, make a list of your favorite foods from the Induction list and enjoy them. (Especially all those foods you can't eat on a low fat diet!)
I love post roasts (beef and pork), Keilbasa sausage, stir fried chicken with LOTS of olive oil, and blackened catfish with butter.
Good luck on your weight loss journey! And don't forget to READ THE BOOK!
