Hi, I’m new
I have been trying to post now since 6/26 and have not succeeded yet.
Hope this one makes it. I really need support from a group of people who
have gone and are going through induction as I am. This is my 3rd
attempt at it and I am pretty depressed about it already. I started it
on 6/11 and lost 7lbs in 13 days, then I fell off the wagon and gave
in to temptation. My temptation is sweets. In a BIG way! I’ve loved
them since I was 2 says my Mom and it has been a thorn in my side ever
since.
I have gained back 3 of my 7 lbs this past week and cannot seem to get
past the hump of cravings for sweets. I even took my healthy snacks
with me when I went fishing this past weekend and still stopped and
bought not 1, but two candy bars and ate them instead! See what I
mean, I’m hopelessly addicted on sweets. I fixed cookies for my
daughter and her friends and proceeded to eat most of them myself.
Ugh!! It’s really depressing me because I want to lose the weight
before we go on our 25th wedding anniversary trip on August 3rd. At
this rate I will be heavier than when I started this process. Any
suggestions?

Thanks for the info about my messages. I think I remember reading
something about that, just didn’t know it would take so long and I was
needing help fast and not getting it. I tend to overeat when stressed
and that stressed me to the max. I’m feeling better now that I can
talk to people who know what I am going through. Thanks for the ideas
on my sweet tooth also. I have some of the bars and have used them,
but I thought I wasn’t allowed to on induction and I quit. I hadn’t
thought about the jello. That’s an idea I can use for sure. Are
sunflower seeds not allowed on induction either? I’ve been using them
as a snack sometimes.

Have you tried Costco. If you look in where they have all the protein
bars, they carry all of Atkins bars
