          Re: atkins is working

          The scale will always read less in the morning because everything we eat and drink has weight to it.
          You can weigh whenever is conveinent but you probably want to be consistent about the time. I like to weigh first thing after bathrooming, and see my lowest weight.
          Congrats on your baby! And Congrats on your lowest weight since!

            Stay off of the scale. Weigh yourself weekly. You will be happier. Obviously you are doing the diet right. Just keep avoiding those carbs and you will be successful.

              yes its possible to drop 3 lbs in 4 day, congrats on your loss. In the begining some of the weight you lose is water weight but the longer you stay on Atkins the more fat you will burn. Keep up the good work. If you need any help dont hessitate to ask everyone here is awesome.

                    Congratulations! You're doing a great job! Stick with it and like someone else said and as I am now finding out...try NOT to weigh yourself daily. It can become an obsession and the scale fluctuates SO SO MUCH! Try to go by a tape measure and how your clothes fit, how you feel and just work the program. Weigh yourself weekly if possible. That's what i'm going to try to do.

                    Be proud of yourself...you're doing FABULOUSLY!

                      You are so much better off if you weigh weekly instead of daily. Its great on the days the scale goes down but if theres a day where it goes up it can really throw you off. Pick a day and time and stick to it every week. Good Luck!
