  • Doing great 2nd time around!

    Hi everyone,

    I've been on moderate ketosis (according to the keto stix) since day 3 of induction. I didn't have the induction flu this time because I followed a lot of your instructions - eat when you're hungry, increase dietary fat. I'm a water drinker so no problem with that, also taking lots of supplements recommended by Dr Atkins, cardio 3x/wk alternating with weight training/toning 2x/wk.

    I'm bursting with energy and no unhealthy cravings whatsoever! Now that I've been able to increase my exercise intensity, I've been able to use splenda (2 packets/day max) and remain in ketosis. I haven't weighed yet but some of my clothes are loser, I feel thinner and bursting with confidence as well.

    I want to thank everyone for their encouragement. To SugarFreeSheila, your pancake recipe was an instant hit in my household. My husband and 4 yr old girl love it! I can't wait to get the cookbooks. I visit your website often. I have learned a lot from you and I'm completely inspired!

    I have no doubt in my mind that I will reach my goals. Thanks to this board and the wonderful people in it.!

    Team Atkins! The fastest way & the only way to reshape my body. I lost 16 pounds of pure body fat in 3 short months. I went from 139 lbs (size 7/9)... to 123 lbs (size 3). Check out my album for before & after photos.
