I started on induction last Thursday ( Jan. 17) and have lost 4 pounds already, despite the fact I went out to eat on my anniversary. We went to a Japanese restuarant and I was surprised how much of the food had sugar in it. Since my daughter took us out, I didn't want to seem ungratful so I ordered something. I didn't eat any of the teriyaki because I knew it had sugar so I found a dish that was all shredded beef with rice and vegetables in separate bowls. I skipped the rice and ate the meat and veggies. But I could tell the meat had a sauce with sugar in it. Sure enough, it kicked me out of ketosis. But despite that, I STILL have lost 4 pounds! I have also solved my constipation problem by taking 2 fiber-com tablets daily. They work better than anything else I have tried.

WTG with your 4 pounds down! Keep up the good work!!

Congrats on the 4lbs and kicking that rice to the curb.

Woo Hoo! Keep up the good work and don't weigh yourself everyday. Dr. Atkins suggest you only do it once per week.

Congrats on the 4lbs loss!! Good Luck!
