Atkins Is Wonderful!

Hello my name is Sue and I am a carbaholic! - that is until I started Atkins! - Its been about 3 weeks and I have lost 8.5LBS!
I thought I would never be able to do Atkins - LOVED my breads pasta etc - but I went on it with DH (WHo by the way has lost 15lbs!) and I waited for the Atkins flu or to feel sick or to feel really lousy while my body adjusted to this new way of eating and it never came. I never feel I am on a diet(cause I am not) if I am hungry I eat! I have more energy less irritable and just feel better than I have in a long while! I remain on induction because I still have a large amount of weight to lose and will probaly start OWL The 1st of May!


I LOVE THIS PLAN!!!!!

It sounds like you are doing so well with Atkins! Good for you and your husband. Keep up the great work. I know you'll reach your goal in no time!

I too appreciate eating lower carbs. I used to snore so badly I thought DH would ask for separate bedrooms. I was also very sluggish and tired every afternoon. Now I have loads of energy and work out 6 mornings per week. I never get that 2:00 pm need a snooze feeling and I know I owe it to cutting out those bad carbs!

I'm with you Sue! I feel great, not because I've lost so much weight (6 lbs. in a month) but because I feel like food doesn't "call" to me anymore. I don't come home and plow through a bag of chips. I used to be so helpless. Yesterday I ate ONE jellybean. That could have never happened before Atkins. Never. I joined a gym today and, hopefully, that will help speed up the weightloss but I almost don't care if I lose. I just feel that good. And I get great motivation from folks like you. Keep up the good work!
