    My first day

    It has gone well so far; my craving will come around 6 to 9 pm.
    I will have to say strong and push threw that horrible time.
    I really hope this works for me!

      Re: My first day

      My first couple of days, i had cravings about that time too. I would take a long bath first and then I would have a 16 oz glass of water while in the bathtub. When I got out another 16 oz. Then I would find something great on TV (I am not much of a TV watcher) then i would have some green peppers, cucumber slices and 1 strawberry for the end. I would not think of how much I could eat, only that if I ate this amount, I could see the scales go DOWN!!
      Good luck ......you can do it!!!

        If you are hungry--you should snack. Try to find some induction friendly snacks you could fit in during those hours to keep you comfortable.

        Also--DRINK DRINK DRINK. Make sure you are getting enough water--hunger pangs could be a sign that you are thirsty.

          Just a note; strawberries aren't allowed on induction.

          You'll do fine.

            Ugg.

            I failed today.
            I had some sweets for my "husband" and I wound up eating it.
            I guess that was an excuse?
            Anyways I am going to trash it all now!
            And start with a clean house tomorrow!

              The first 2-3 days are typically the worst, so do your best to be cheat free, for Induction and as long as possible. You will love the results, trust me!

                You can do it!!

                and make sure you have lots of 'legal' high-fat snacks prepared and available to eat if the munchies strike!
                Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



                Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

                  Well once again I failed yesterday.

                  I think it was because I didnt have atkins snacks. Well this morning I bought some olives and radishes and extra crunch veggies and salad.
                  I was trying to do it with frozen veggies but it was not such a good idea.
                  I was lucky to talk my DH out of wanting ice cream.
                  Well I am off to make by breakfast.
                  2 eggs , bacon
                  lunch- salad and pork chop pieces
                  dinner- ground taco beef and salad.

                  Humm? Is taco seasoning all right? I will have to look into it; the package says no sugar.?

                    Are you also getting in a good suppliment? They help if you get a good one with stuff Atkins recommends for cravings in it.
