Your three pounds down eating steak and eggs, in 10 days....my advice is, be happy with this, its an awesome accomplishment and a tasty way to lose weight

I am still stuck at 3 pounds after two weeks, but I am going to take many of these suggestions and check for nitrates. I'm not really eating any prepared foods, although yesterday I ordered a yummy chicken, spinach and feta salad and forgot to ask for the dressing on the side. It was definitely very sweet, so I'm sure I way overloaded yesterday. Back at it today. Thanks for the words of encouragement!

Yeah you are likely having hidden carbs...Have you tried using Fitday.com or the MyPlan in this site?? Fitday helped me alot! Also, don't forget to count carbs in your gum, pop, sauces, condiments, etc....I found I was having quite a bit over 20 carbs and started losing better when I tracked 'everything' in the fitday thing. I wouldn't cut down portions but would cut out more carb items first thing...don't forget to get your healthy fats in too! Also, watch your portions of veggies as that was another thing hanging me up at first...(I was having way too many for induction)....Hope this helps!

thanks, i was UP a pound today, so i'm essentially starting over on induction. we can't find out atkins book, so i'm off today to get a new one and remind myself of the strictness of induction. i will also try the fitday. thanks to all.
