You guys are doing awesome! I am considering this when I can do some serious grocery shopping.

I'm still curious to see how this weight loss maintains after adding back some carbs. I'm very impressed with everyone's results.

Just started today.

I'm seriously considering starting this... I'll have to hide all the low carb snacks in the house so I'm not tempted... LOL. And it will be hard for me to give up cheese too...

I just know that I've been too slack and I've gained weight because of it and I want it back off. If I gain too much more my wedding dress isn't going to fit, no matter how much they let it out.

Restarting today. Had done it Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and had a loss of 4 pounds the first day but I stopped weighing myself so I don't know if I lost any more.

Weekend is gonna be hard but if I can do it during the weekend than the weekday will be a breeze.

Cheers.

Hi everyone,

I like the sound of this to get a good few pounds off for my holidays.

But I'm a vegetarian I don't eat any kind of meat, fish or chicken, so I'd have too change it abit and see what happens I eat Quorn it's a meat subsitute and it contants 1 carb per slice so I think if I have it and keep as low in carbs as I can it might be ok.

Can i have cheese on this as i rely on it and it has 0 carbs in it.

What do you think of this menu :-

Breakfast :- 2 slices of quorn, cheese = 2 carbs

Lunch :- 1 egg, 1 slice quorn = 2 carbs

Tea :- 2 quorn sausages, 1 egg = 2.8 carbs

If I can have cheese I would add it to the meals.

What do you think?

I think I would be alittle hungry, but would it hurt to try it for 1 day to see what happens and judge it like that, if I feel ok and lose weight I could do it another day and just see what happens.

Please let me know your thought's if you don't think it's safe to do it, I will take your advice and not do it, as it's not worth making yourself ill for a couple of pounds.

I started doing this on Tuesday and did it for three days and lost 3 pounds. I think I will have to add a salad today, but will do it again for another three days. I will keep you posted.

I found this thread yesterday and read it all with fascination! I am going to give this a try.
So far today I ate 3 extra large eggs fried in butter and 2.5 pcs of bacon, and I am at 2 carbs in fitday. I will consider adding some ground flax seed to something somewhere today, just to help things.

This is exciting. I have been at 205 for a couple of weeks, and I think I can only lose weight during certain times during the month. I just seem to stall out the rest of the time no matter how low my carbs are.

** ate too much ham today (too high in carbs) will know better for tomorrow. Also had some romaine (for the fiber- I am afraid of what all this meat will do to me!). The rest of the food I ate was all good. I came in at 6 carbs-1 fiber= 5. I know I should not count the fiber, but oh well. live and learn.

today is day 3 of the meat and egg fast for me. I have lost 1.5 pounds in 2 days, which is good for me. I want to stay on for the rest of this week and get to onederland.

Hi,

I started my own version on friday without meat and I've found it very easy and it's worked, I've lost 3 lb, today is my normal weigh day. I normall take a few weeks to get to my next stone mark as we use in England and I'm there in 3 days so I just need it to go under now so I'm staying on this until I'm under 182 lb (13 st). I can wait for it to happen.

I don't do weight training, but I have had my same amount of energy for work (I am doing 6 days straight). I also feel better about what I am eating because it is simpler, and I stay full.

I found that ham and sausages etc have additives/fillers that can be high in carbs which cuts back the amount of stuff you can eat with it- such as mayo. I made 11 burger patties this morning with low carb bbq sauce (2 tb=2 carbs), dijon mustard, and some red onion. Divided between the 11 patties it does not equal much, but gives much flavor and makes the meat more palatable, I think. And since I am only eating eggs and "pure" meat, my carbs are low enough to add some flavor to ground beef.
If you get to the end of the day and are hungry and have some carbs left, go ahead and eat ham or whatever. It is still meat!
hth,

OK, I did the meat/egg fast for 2 days...started at 205 & today I'm at 204. Wasn't bad at all, but I ate brats & sausages along with eggs, hamburgers & a steak. I'm not disappointed because I'm an extremely slow loser anyway. The fast really kills your appetite. I'm going to do it again, I'll let you know how it goes. Keep up the great work!

I started the meat/egg fast last Monday (8/9) at 168. Throughout the week, I steadily dropped to 161 on Friday. Over the weekend, because of several obligations, I increased my carbs and ate Induction friendly foods. On Saturday, I woke up to 160 and maintained that weight all weekend. This morning, I again, woke up to 160 and plan to return to the egg/meat fast.

Last week, after Day 1, I found the fast incredibly easy. In the past, when I've returned to Induction, I found it difficult to remember which foods were acceptable during that phase. The fast was simple; meat or eggs and seeing results almost daily was enough to boost my motivation...

Here's to hoping this week is as successful as the last.
