    Its Atkins Eve!

    Hello!

    I start on plan tomorrow, so very excited and the fridge is stocked for Atkins (much to my boyfriends delight!)

    I look forward to checking in with you all over the next 14 days and sharing hints, tips and motivation.

                                          Thankyou!

                                          Hi Elizellen, so far so good. I have decided to take the batteries out of the scales and to only weigh once a fortnight...otherwise i will become a scale slave! You have done so well, i would be interested to know a typical menu for you was at the beginning of your weight loss journey?
                                          Ajakol- we have similar start weighs and goal weights! good luck to you too, i'll look in on you and hope to see lots of losses for us both!

                                              good for you for deciding not to weigh every day, Coralie it will make your first 14 day loss a nice surprise I am sure!
                                              A typical induction menu for me was
                                              Breakfast - ham and cheese rollups and a few cherry tomatoes
                                              Lunch (usually at a local cafe) - Egg, bacon, mushrooms or a ham omelette with salad.
                                              Dinner - some kind of meat or fish with roasted red peppers and cauliflower or brocolli.
                                              Snacks - precooked chicken wings or drumsticks with the skin on, celery and mayo.

                                              What I did was looked at the 'allowed list' and chose something yummy from it so as not to feel deprived!
