Paddy, you are near me. I live in Stafford Va and work in the Alington Alexandria area. My note was basically saying that I can not remember how long it took but, it took at least the first two full weeks and probably the week after that because I did not do strict strict induction. I drink wine and or vodka almost everyday. Spare the lecture but it is my only vice left!! So, it could go faster for you. I did not worry about calories at all. I ate salads too and I like a lot of dressing I get Annies Green Goddess 2 carbs per tablespoon. This week I have been bad about logging my foods but have stuck to the same stuff. I have been having bologna slices for breakfast, a basic salad for lunch like just romaine and tomato and cukes with a several tablespoons of dressing and dinner has been steak or hamburger or shrimp or buffalo wings, anything that is allowed and pretty basic. I also eat a lot of cheese so sometimes for a day or two I try to lighten up on the cheese. I have also been doing and Atkins or low carb slim fast shake almost everyday kind of like a snack. Here is my fitday log on, kellyd43 password trader. I have been bad about logging the past few days! If you have more questions afer looking through it please ask. I hope I am doing it correctly, some things I guess at, like if I eat 5 meatballs, I just take each ingredient and guess at the amount of each ingredient. I also think that afer the first two weeks you have to throw a couple of carbs in, just to shake things up. Like a low carb tortilla or two. But, that is just me. Again, if you have any questions after looking through let me know. But, it is too early! Do not give up!! It definately happens after day 6 , you need the whole two weeks! You will see! I promise!! Post your menus for others to see. Sometimes they find hidden carbs for you! Kelly
