I'm almost all the way through the first week of Induction. I feel like if I eat another egg or see another piece of meat, I'm going to be ill. I miss carbs. I dream about food. That's pretty sad. Last night, I dreamt I robbed a Dunkin Donuts at gunpoint, but only wanted the food.
I feel okay other than that. My appetite is reasonably under control for the first time in years. I'm finding little things I have as a treat, like iced coffee with a shot of sugar free flavored syrup, or sugar free jello. I have some Atkins bars and shakes that say they are suitable for "all phases"--the coconut bar tastes just like a Mounds bar. All in all, I think I'll make it through the next week. I wanted to stay on Induction until I get below 200# (15 to go - I've already lost 6# this week!) but I don't want to deprive myself to the point that I crash and burn into a heaping pile of pastries.
I have noticed that my body temperature seems a little higher than normal. I wonder if it's the fat burning, or perimenopause. That's a pleasant thought, huh?

I would give it another week and if you are miserable, maybe try something else like carb cycling. It when you have higher and lower carb days. A diet needs to be livable because whatever you do to lose the weight, you need to keep doing to keep it off.

Definately had a blow out today. Found myself out at lunch time, and at Jason's Deli. I should have had the salad bar, but that taco salad was calling to me. I only ate half of the half size, but the carbs were outrageous. It was soooo good, but about a half hour later, I felt horrible. It was like the feeling you get when you sit down and eat half a sheet cake. Lesson learned, although I may try one meal a week without worrying about the carb count, just to keep my metabolism on its toes.
