Welcome. You should rethink your whole attitude towards food.
Those bars that stalled you, are not food.

Thank you for the welcome. And I have rethought the whole bars
and candy thing. Hence the "I now know better" from my original
post. I'm planning on sticking to Induction to the letter and
doing this right this time.


Don't let the fact that your husband is not low carbing, as an
excuse for you to give up.

I'm not going to let that get in my way. In fact, the last time I
did this, about three months ago, he wasn't doing it and I did
great, for a bit. I lost 13lbs in the first week. Unfortunately,
he tried to help and brought me low carb ice cream and bars and I
stupidly ate them. Then he brought home low carb bread and, even
under normal conditions, wheat and I don't get along except in very
small amounts. So I stalled for 3 weeks, got frustrated and gave
up. He offered to do it with me this time and to do it right.
He'll cheat at work but he won't bring anything home unless I tell
him it's OK. He works at a grocery store and they're getting in
lots of low-carb stuff right now. I tell him not to bring any of it
home unless I have looked at it and specifically OK'd it. He won't
read the book, so I'm in charge of the menus and stuff. It just
helps that he'll stick with me on it.
