Atkins diet blog

, i am sorry that few replied. my sweet tooth has gone away for the most
part, but every now and then my family surrounds me and eats ice cream or
homemade pie and i feel like i need a sweet fix as well. when i want something
sweet, i put about 3tbs heavy cream in the blender with about 5 ice cubes, just
a little splenda, and some unsweetened cocoa or strawberry koolaid. It’s not
ice cream, but it does help when i feel like i NEED sweet. the candy bars are
good (i like pure delight brand white chocolate bar) but this concoction is
better for induction. i hope this is helpful

Hi Connie
It was nice to hear from you…I have not eaten one morsel of
anything that I shouldn’t..I DRINK alot of water…It said in the
book that if you have a large amount of weight to lose –that in the
1st 2wks u could lose alot But even if I hadn’t YOU will lose inches
That is what everyone I know that is on it said.On every weight
loss program you will hit a place where the weight will stop coming
off…this is the true test of how serious I am about doing this…I
know that in so many days it will start again also inches can come
of not necessarelly(sp)by the scale so PLEASE donot get
discouraged,It will work alot of people have been very succesfull..
Yesterday I had eggsalad wrapped up in lettuce Deeeeeeelicious(if
you like egg salad) I also keep boiled eggs on hand for snack…Very
filling…KEEP IT UP IT WORKS!!!!!STAY AWAY FROM SCALE

I am new to the diet scene. at this point I am not started on the
diet. I just came from the Doctor’s office and was told that I needed
to lose about 100 lbs. How does this diet work? How do I get started?
I am on SSA disability and very limited income, Does this cost alot?
PLEASE HELP me get started. The reason I am checking this diet out is
because I was told I would not be hungry. I can’t stand feeling
hungry - I’d rather be fat.
Thanks;

I live in BC canada and I am having a hard time finding beverages on
the Canadian Splenda list. Anybody seen these here and in what
stores.
Thanks

Hi guys. I have been on induction for almost two weeks now and I feel like I
keep making all these mistakes. I have been I guess overENDULGing with those
Atkins peanut butter cups. I just read an email yesterday saying we’re not
supposed to have those during induction. I thought I read that we can have the
Atkins Advantage Bars and Morning Start Bars. Is that right? So, I thought
we were allowed Endulge bars also. I’m also getting bored with having eggs
everyday. Anyone else feel the same? Almost 2wks. and just 2lbs. That’s it!
I’m
bummed. Any info would greatly help. Thanks.

Hi Barbara and welcome. I’m sorry that no one responded to your posts. I
guess I am guilty of that crime too…i read them daily for inspiration but
rarely post back. Sorry… Your post caught my eye because I too am from
Massachusetts. Where in MA are you…I am in Rehoboth (small little cow
town…lol)
I have been doing Atkins for a while now… I did stop for 2 weeks here and
there but I really enjoy this way of life and its the only way I see results.
Hit my high of 232 in January and started then. Since then I have lost 23
pounds fairely easily…would have been more if i didnt stop for a few weeks.
I take paxil for anxiety attacks and it is supposed to slow down your weight
loss but I am doing well enough to keep going. I am 35 years old, married
with 3 kids….14, 12, and 6. Just wanted to welcome you to the group wish you
success!! My email is Cofeaddict@… if you need any help or questions
or just want a support buddy.

Hi Jacki…and WELCOME, I am reading the posts daily but don’t write to the
group very much. I have been doing Atkins on and off since January and I
have lost 22 pounds as of today. I am a sugar junkie and I too love chocolate.
The only thing I have found that helps me through with my chocolate cravings
is the peanut butter cups from Atkins. I don’t have them often because I
follow induction but I rather eat those then go off the diet and every chocolate
bar at the checkout of the store!! LOL They really aren’t too bad tasting
either. (They also help in the constipation department too…) Well good
luck with diet and keep us all posted to your progress.

Barbara,
Your post could have been written by me, except I started 10 pounds more and
am not loosing as fast as you. I sound just like you, carrying my weight in the
stomach and looking pregnant all the time.
I hope that you and I will both continue on this way, and will get down to
our desired weight and stay there.
