Hi Maggie, The first week was the hardest for me and it gets much, much easier! I began 11/11/11 and have lost 22 lbs! I weigh in tomorrow and will ask to be measured (I haven't been measured yet...) I'm losing about 2.5 lbs / week. It gets easier and my nightmares have subsided!!! I stick with it too 110%!!! Keep up the great work!!! From another Maggie...

I was encouraged to start after the New Year and I'm glad I didn't. The only date that bothered me was my wedding anniversary...I missed a nice dinner with a bottle of wine... but I'll make up for it next year! I'm really glad I didn't wait...there's no time like the present!!!

I guess it is a little different for everyone. Like day 4ish but apparently I have been leading myself into a longer time period by eating the FF whip cream and tic tacs (both recommended by my coach). So now those are out the window and I will resume my plan. I have not cheated so it should happen. Anyways, it is when you get over the hump "so to speak" no longer hungry. Someone with more experience than me can chime in and tell you exactly. Regardless keep on going. I am excited to have a weekly weigh in buddy.

Maggie ~ You should check out the forum titled "What I Wish My Coach Had Told Me". It was very informative.

I just had my first WI last night and I lost 10.6 lbs and 15.5 inches!!! I couldn't believe it. My husband lost 7 lbs. Today is the first day I'm actually not hungry, but last week I was ravenous most days. I'm hoping ketosis has finally kicked in. =) Good luck with your weigh in.

Welcome to everyone. I look forward to tracking my progress with you all. Excited to get past ketosis. Hoping any day and feeling balanced again. Kind of out of whack right now. Great job on all the WI!

Hi Maggie,
This is my 2nd week and my 1st week's loss was 5lbs and 2.25 inches. I had a nightmare early on that I went off plan and was eating chips and anything else I could get my hands on. Now, I am just having LOTS of extremely vivid and detailed dreams every night. Anyone else experiencing this? I asked my Dr. today and she said she hasn't had anyone report that.
Good luck Maggie and congratulations to everyone!
