what concerns me is so many people write in saying they’re doing induction again (and again and again) because even though they love low carb and lost weight, they went off the diet and gained all the weight back. i’m quite interested in low carb but if it works so well why does everyone go off it?

It took me about a year to go from 260 to 195. I then more or less stalled for maybe 9 months, then the last 15 came off.
It’s critical to remember that this isn’t a diet you go on for a few month’s, lose the weight, then go back to your old habits. I recently did that and the weight just came right back – now I’m doing induction again.
It’s also critical to understand that exercise is great for you – it just doesn’t help you lose weight. Check out http://backacrosstheline.blogspot.com/2007/12/exercise-not-good-for-weightloss.html for more info on this topic.
