Slimfast Succeed bars

Saturday, June 25th, 2005

I’m reading the label for the Banana Nut Succeed snack bar, and
nutritional info says 18 gr carbs, 1 gr fiber, and 14 gr sugar
alcohol. This means 3 net gr, right? But the front of the label
says 0 sugar. So what’s going on? Am I eating 3 gr or 0? What is
the 3 gr made of? The label says it isn’t sugar, so what could it be?

Day 3 and question

Saturday, June 25th, 2005

It’s Wed and I’m on day 3, not really any issues and yesterday, the
day I expected to feel like crap since that is what I hear, I felt
great and was cleaning real fast around the house. Husband came
home for lunch and we both checked our Ketone’s. I was burning at
moderate and he wasn’t doing any yet? So my question is, we are
both eating the same things, he is much smaller than me, so is that
why I started burning ketone’s earlier than him? After my high
though I started feeling wiped out and my body was hummming, is that
what happens sometimes?
Am off to Wal-Mart to get more goodies for omletes. Never liked
them before but now they seem to be all we eat.

Good morning all,
Quick question on eggs - do you all “count” the carbs on eggs in Induction
and beyond? I just saw a post yesterday somewhere that eggs don’t count, but
I have been counting the .6 carbs or whatever Atkins says, yet on the Atkins
site and in the book it says eggs like all protein is “unlimited”. Just
curious.

Which variety do you like best? I saw Mrs. Dash the other day at the store
and there were so many to choose from.

I cannot say enough about using Mrs. Dash as a seasoning. It is zero
carbs and it has such a good combination of spices in it. I put it
on my mushrooms today with some butter and sauteed them in a frying
pan, sooooooo good.

I love to take a romaine lettuce leaf, smother it in mayo, add four
pieces of bacon and two thin slices of tomato and then fold it like a
tortilla, it is GREAT!!!

headache

Thursday, June 23rd, 2005

Boy, I’m just into my second week, but I had a MAJOR headache from day 2
through day 5. I just took advil, and got some caffeine in Diet Dr. Pepper
(which I know Atkins doesn’t want you to do). I did finally get through it, and
have lost about 7 pounds, I think. I definitely have found out that WATER
plays such a big part in this whole thing. My weight will fluctuate daily if I
don’t get enough.

atkins bars - are they ok for induction?

Thursday, June 23rd, 2005

I seem to get conflicting answers on whether or not the breakfast
bars and indulgence bars are ok for induction. On the website many
items in the store area have a 1 for induction? How much is ok and
does it slow weight loss? Thanks, L

New Member looking for support

I thought I would give the Atkins diet a shot, since nothing else is
working for me and I am getting larger and larger. I am 5′5″ and
weigh 205lbs, I have a small frame so I am going to be working to
get down to my realistic goal weight of 135 lbs. I thought I might
be able to do it this time with a little support along with other
people going through the same things.
