Talking I believe in the Whoosh Fairy!

I had my first whoosh and now I'm a believer.

Lost 8 lbs my first week of induction, then NOTHING, NADA , NIENTE , RIEN , for over three weeks. People said to hang in there and just keep doing what I was doing. I was skeptical, but I felt really good and wasn't gaining any weight, so what did I have to lose? (besides about 60 pounds )

This morning, five pounds off, just like that. Unbelievable.

I would have posted this in Tips and Stalls, except there's no tip: I just hung in there and ate well every day (except a couple days when I ate less well, but mostly very well!). I'm so psyched now; I really believe this is going to work.
