Been on Induction for 21 days.

Lost 3 inches from my waist in 3 weeks.

Lost 12 lbs in the first 2 weeks of induction, and it's slowed to 3 lbs this week. Still proud of myself though.
In a smaller dress size already. :)

Hoping for support for the long haul ahead. Is 2-3lbs per week achievable over the long haul?

I guess we don't really "talk" but if you have a question, you can start a new thread for people to answer.
Also, if you start a journal, put your foods, feelings, any thing you want really, and others will come around and "visit" you and you can do the same. Vist a few journals to see what others are doing.
Once you get used to the set up of the fourm, it's a great place to be.

Doesn't anyone feel worried about the shape changes? It's quite pronounced.

Weightwatchers etc didn't work for me, so for the first time in my life I have to equate "shape" with "diet". My shape hasn't changed with any other diet before.

Does anyone notice "where" they lose weight first. I hoping the inch lost then "spreads" out, but so far its targetting one place.

Anyway got 3 pairs of cheap tracksuit bottoms as my "diet" wear. So that failing down clothes don't take me off the diet, due to public embarrassment (or public exposure). Blimey, don't even have to undo my clothes, they're falling down round my knees!
