  1. Howdy,

    After a summer of carb debauchery, i'm back on induction. I had lost almost
    65lbs with low carbing over the past two years. Slacked off a lot this
    summer - ate cake, ice cream (not the LC versions) fried foods,
    potatoes..and the list goes on. Mind you, it wasn't a carb fest. There
    were dayes..maybe even a week or two that were strictly low carb.

    Nonetheless, I'm back. Didn't gain that much, though. Went from 188 at the
    beginning of the summer to 192 now. It's a steady 192, so I know its not
    water. I just have to remember how I did it two years ago. Inductin is easy
    to forget if you haven't done it in a while.

    I'll be lurking, posting, etc. Thanks.

  2. It took you 2 years to lose 65 pounds on Atkins??? I think a lot of you
    people need a crash course in INDUCTION!

    OK so you gained 10 pounds back, in about 2 weeks it will be gone, provided
    you stay ON induction!

    WAKE UP PEOPLE!

    Second or third time (etc) weight loss with lowcarb after the first
    dramatic success tends to be not so dramatic. Your body remembers how
    to do it even if you don't, and will shift to *efficient* fat burning
    rather more quickly than the first time. Plan on watching your calories
    sooner and more strictly and excercising to achieve the results you are
    looking for.

    Oh, shut up. Due to several chronic diseases (with a newly discovered one),
    meds, and other factors, I have lost 51 pounds in a year and a half. Some of
    us are slower.

    Making generalized assumptions about people that you know nothing about is a
    sign of stupidity.

    I think a lot of people would fail if they dtayed on induction as long as
    you are advising. The limited selections of certain foods would discourage
    people from staying on the diet or make it easier to binge on carbs. I
    myself am losing slowly. It didn't go on overnight and I don't expect it to
    fall off overnight. If I am losing at all - then my new WOE is successful
    (no matter how long it takes). You aren't showing a lot of support to those
    trying to lose (and aren't losing up to your standards). This is a SUPPORT
    group. Please show support.

    He's a one-note poster who never does anything but taunt people about how slowly
    they lose and how everyone should stay on induction forever and ever and ever
    more. Sam Marks is a troll -- I recommend we stop feeding him.

    Tried it, dear, seven and a half years ago. Stayed on Induction for
    4 months. Didn't lose a single pound after 4 pounds of water dropped
    off when I went into ketosis. There weren't any low carb products
    out yet to trip people up, nor was there a wealth of experienced
    LCers who'd been through it to clue me in that increasing my carbs
    might work better, and that staying on the limits of Induction might
    be causing me to eat more calories than if I went to the next phase.
    I stuck to it because it improved other health problems like allergies
    and arthritis, and I felt better on it. When I eased my carbs up to
    40g/day over a few weeks, I started losing again.

    It reminds me strongly of that other poster who used to berate us all
    for not staying on induction-- was on the diet for some rediculously
    short period and automagically knew ever so much more than regulars
    who'd been at it for years. Called us all trolls too. What was that
    twit's name again?

  10. 65 was all i wnted to lose--most of that came off the first few months--i
    didn't say it took me 2 years to lose it, now did I? There are other easons
    for doing low carb than losing weight--like maintaining weight? listen (or
    read) more, talk (or type) less.

    Looks like we have a winner. Both post from the Arlington VA pool

    a sure bet that he didn't STAY!!! ON!!! INDUCTION!!! or LC at all

    I had a feeling, especially when he started calling everyone "hun," which
    was exactly what sseaott began to do as soon as he was backed into a corner
    last time.
