Just Started
Hi everyone. I started induction today. So far it’s not so bad
because I don’t really eat pasta and very little bread, my downfall
is saying goodbye to my sweet tooth LOL. So everyone wish me luck.
What do you all eat on induction? I just had a cheese burger with no
bread or anything, just burger and a slice of cheese. Also are diet
soda’s ok if they have no carbs?

OK this one is over the top! Shasta has a DIET CHOCOLATE SODA
sweetened with SPLENDA! I just bought a half case for $1.98 at my
local box store. Can’t tell you how it tastes yet, I have a can in
the freezer as I write this.
Shasta has several other varieties that are sweetened with Splenda
including a yummy French Vanilla Cola.
Give them a try!

Hi,
I just started this diet and just can not give up my Diet
Pepsi/Coke. I know from reading the book that I should avoid these
drinks so I am wondering if anyone faced a similiar problem and what
did they use as a substitute??
Thanks so much.

Everyone is different in how their body responds to caffeine and the
sweetener that is used in the diet drinks. I have a hard time with caffeine
withdrawls and find it really hard at times to not drink it. Some days I
can do really well, other days I can be sick, and one glass of any diet with
caffeine will do me fine. The caffeine and/or the sweetener used in it can
stall you or slow you down in your loss.
Now I have started making Kool-aid with Splenda.....man oh man was that the
best tip I have ever had in my life! I also take my water and toss it in
the freezer for a while until I can squeeze the sides of the bottle and make
it a little slushy. Quite delicious, both my girls (3 & 4 yo) like it that
way too.

Hello everyone. I just started the Atkins diet on Monday. I have
realized that I haven’t been doing it completely right. I just read
the induction rules online, and realized that I HAVE to cut out
caffeine, and I am eatting too many vegetables. I brought veggies to
work as a snack, but no longer. Does anyone have any good snack
ideas. I am good until lunch, but 3:30 is when I start getting
pretty hungry. Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Holly

My wife and I just started this diet Tuesday. Right now everything is
going good, but I was wondering if I need to be expecting something.
Weird cravings, eating spree or something like that. thanks
