    I just had a breakthrough… after being stuck for a month, the scale
    just budged downward again.
    Weight is not coming off fast with this diet, but I am not hungry
    either.

    Are you saying that you have not lost any weight on Atkins? Please
    clarify/expound

    Maria,
    Have you entered your meals into fitday to see if you are getting enough
    calories, enough fat, not too much protein, etc??? Or post exactly what you
    are eating on the list to see if anyone has some ideas to help you out. Did
    you measure to see if you are losing inches?

    Fantastic, Teresa!!!! Y’all are getting me geared up to start OVER again!!!

    Great! May I ask where you live in NC? Email me privately if you are more
    comfortable with that. Atkins has worked wonderfully for me. I do love meat
    and high fat foods though. .LOL. It was tough the first few weeks getting
    “unaddicted” to carbs.. But, now, honestly, I do not miss them at all. It is
    VERY rare that I take a tiny bite of anything high in carbs. I am so
    relieved that I do not feel at all like I am dieting. I do not feel deprived
    at
    all. I am full and satisfied and even when I stay on a “maintenance” type
    program and do not watch my carbs as closely ( like when one is on induction)
    I
    have continued to lose. I do lose much more slowly when on maintenance (
    maybe 2 pounds a month) But, I know when I go back on induction, the weight
    will start to come off quickly again. It is reassuring to know that I can live
    this lifestyle and not gain the weight back! My cholestrol and trigs have
    came down too. Wish me luck!

    water. I put lots of fat butter and oil on the meat and veg.
    I can tell from my clothes I am the same size.

    Hi Katie,
    www.fitday.com - it is a wonderful way to keep track of what you are eating.
    Just enter all of your food for the day and it will break down the
    fat/protein/ carbs, how many calories you are eating, etc.

  16. Keith Mathilde Says:

    Maria,
    Are you sure you are eating enough calories? How about entering all of your
    food for the day into fitday and see where you stand?
    When you say lots of water, what does that mean? 64 oz plus 8 for every 25
    lbs. you want to lose???

    What kind of gravy - bisto. Maybe once a fortnight.

    Dear Em
    What is a ‘cup’? I have lots of different cups in my house, all of them
    different sizes.
    Maria

  26. Howard Alva Says:

    Do you have a measuring cup? That would be the cup.
    Carol

  27. Guadalupe Salome Says:

    I have a set of measuring cups but the largest wouldn’t hold even a
    small apple.
    How many grammes or ounces is in ‘a cup’?
    Maria

  28. Guadalupe Salome Says:

    I wasn’t suggesting that I eat an apple !!!!! I was just trying to give
    you an idea of the size of the cup!
    In the UK a cup is not a unit of measurement.

    Em~ That is how I was too! I ate lots of junk and I lost 19 lbs on
    induction the first time I did atkins!! I have made it thru my 2nd day of
    induction.
    I am doing pretty good! The weekends are what kill me though! I am praying
    I can make it thru the weekend without cheating! Sharon

    Maria
    A *cup* is a standard size of measure. It would not be one of your regular
    cups that you drink out of. It would be a glass measuring cup, with
    measurements marked on the sides, or a set of measuring cups in graduated
    sizes; from
    1 cup to 3/4 cup to 1/2 cup to 1/4 cup.

    Sharon:
    Maybe if you think of it not as “cheating” or “being good” but as doing
    what your body needs it might help. I’ve been overweight all my life
    and addicted to bread, noodles, potatoes, cookies, you get it, right? I
    treat that stuff now like I’m allergic to it, which I believe I am. If I
    eat that stuff it causes me to have heartburn like you wouldn’t believe
    and I feel sick. I also have an illness that makes me metabolically
    resistant so I have to eat even less carbs to be half as successfull,
    but it’s working, slowly. Keep your chin up and if you feel tempted,
    email us. You can do this.
