Good job! Could you tell us a little bit how you did it?

Weighed again today and lost an additional 4 pounds, so something must be working right. 8 days on induction, 8 pounds lost. I think I can make it on this diet

Weighing my food today. We will see. Now i have to figure out how to share my food diary??? Still trying to figure this out. I'm on Atkins / Ketogenic and I am doing good so far with it.

I'm going to hop in and join this. I'm doing Atkins, low carb, high fat, high protein. I'm on day six, in the induction phase. I've lost six pounds so far. My metabolism is shut down and I tried losing weight last year just by calorie counting and not concerned about carbs and I didn't lose anything. Also, I went gluten…

Keep going! You've got this :)

I'm curious as to how much you are actually spending on what you are eating and drinking. You should calculate a normal week. Write down everything you put into your mouth and approximate the cost at that time. If you have a candy bar write it down along with how much it cost. I think you can afford to eat healthy and make…

"You go girl" definitely applies here :)
