Well here goes,
I've now been on induction for a week and so far overall, its been a success I think. Have stuck to the plan (again I think!) Apart from out to dinner Mothers Day. Was v tricky looking at menu but chose salmon in creamy asparagus sauce and ate the steamed broccolli and cauli that came with it. Rest of the week have had eggs for breakfast (sometimes as omelette or with bacon/mushrooms), green salad with tuna or chicken for lunch and similar for dinner too. Have had the odd sugar free jelly with cream or bag of pork scratchings and tend to have a lump of cheese when the kids have a snack after the school run! Haven't tried the bars or mims yet. I think I went into ketosis on Thursday, had the strange taste in my mouth and all of a sudden had lots more energy. Although constant mild headaches still an ongoing feature but bearable!
Loss so far, 11 pounds in 7 days. Which I know I should be thrilled with but!!!.....
This morning when I weighed had put on a pound. Feeling a bit blue now. Could it be the salmon on Sunday?!?! Suppose could have been white wine and/or flour in the sauce. Not using sticks but fairly sure still in ketosis. Knowing me, and from past experience, this is where I would usually starve myself for a few days, get even more fed up and give up totally at the weekend!
If anyone got any ideas or suggestions I'd be grateful. Going to really try, drink more water, cut out the coffee altogether and have green tea instead and see what happens. Maybe I shouldn't weigh myself everyday either! Doesn't help that its a wet and windy day here too!!!:sigh:
