Question Will I lose slower after induction?

Hi everyone

I was wondering if after induction we lose weight slower than during the induction. How many Ib shou I expect to lose in one week more or less?

In a caloric diet during the first week you can lose 3 Ib but in the others weeks about half a Ib for a week. I hope that not happen in this diet, it is horrible.

Thanks

SunnySpain

Hi... I have been seeing you around a lot. Good for you!!!

This is not a fast weightloss diet this is a healthy way to eat everyday whenever you are hungry and to be satisfied while SLOWLY get to your goal weight.

The slowly teaches you to eat right and patience so this time you keep it off. You will not lose weight everyday. Your body will get into natural stalls where it needs to catch up with the weight it has lost. It is good to take measurements now because usually in a stall (4 weeks of no weightloss) you usually are still losing inches.

Realistic weightloss expectations are 10% of your goal of weight to lose is usually lost during induction then 5% of the remaining weight to lose approx every month.

So glad to be of help to you.

I really love this way of eating! For so many years I felt so deprived and hungry and I was gaining weight?!?!? Now I eat whenever I am hungry and continue to get smaller (even when the scale stalls).

You are going to do great and i'm glad you found us here.
