Newbie ..Induction day 6
Hello everyone, thought I would introduce myself. I’m Stacey I’m 29 and I
live in Central IL. I have 2 beautiful daughters and a husband of 12 years. I
started Atkins Sept 2 and I’m totally amazed. I’ve been on every diet you can
imagine since I was 8 years old. I’ve already lost 6 pounds! I’m just
without words, and my parents can’t see how I’m loosing eating all those sinful
meats, cheeses, and butter…LOL (to be honest I don’t see how either..LOL but
it
does make sense to me.) As many people know, low fat high carb diets never
work long term, or they didn’t for me anyway..lol I don’t feel deprived, and I
haven’t had any cravings..knock on wood.
Couple Questions:
1. How exactly do you definitely figure carbs? I’ve read the book, but I’m
unsure about it…
2. How do I know if I’ve actually gone into Ketosis? I’m assuming weight loss
is a sign? (or is it “water” weight like when you normally start any diet?”
Thanks
Stacey
