Day #17 - Back on induction.

Starting weight (7/15/08):  279.8
Wednesday:  267.6   Yesterday:  268.6   Today:  268.2  
Change today:  -0.4   Loss-so-far: 11.6 lbs.

I didn’t post yesterday, partly because I just didn’t feel like addressing a two-pound gain in two days.  Maybe if I don’t acknowledge it, it will go away, but it’s rather hard to erase a day or two like they didn’t happen.  It’s no big deal, I know there are many reasons for fluctuation, blah blah blah.  I just really prefer fluctuation in the downward motion rather than the up.

I did, however, take the advice from someone on here and checked my measurements.  I mean, I’ve been doing my measurements all along (since January), usually on Wednesdays.  I skipped doing it a lot while counting calories but since I started counting carbs I’ve been doing it every week.  So seeing as it was due anyway, I checked my measurements.

Not even a millimeter different from the week before, LOL.  But that’s okay.  Helluva lot better than UP.

So I went off induction on Wednesday and then gained weight so guess what, I went right back on induction.  I don’t mind eating that way and the weight loss was wonderful and so even though I know I won’t lose as fast as I did in those first two weeks, I’d just rather stay in the low range of carbs right now.  My son, Kevin, says he feels the same way.

I’m waiting for my Netrition box to come in the mail!  I kinda hoped it would be here today - it’s coming by UPS and it’s only 2pm so I guess it could still come.  I want to make low-carb pancakes!!!
