And then they get frustrated and wonder why they put the pounds back on.

Because you are sitting at almost 0 carbs on Kimkins-it is not wise to jump from 0 carbs to 25 carbs. I would suggest maybe taking a week and adding 5 g in on a DAILY basis - maybe add one salad the first day, another salad the next day, etc. until you are back at 20 g and then follow Induction for two weeks and THEN move into OWL. This was the proven method that worked for my cousin who came off Kimkins. She was able to maintain her lost weight by doing that. She is anti-Kimkins now. And I can see why.
You are so right. That could be the story of my life right now. Thanks, and I like your forum name
