  • Today is Day one for me! :)

    Hello fellow support group!

    I am Patrick and have been wanting to do Atkins for a long while now. So, today is the day that I have chosen to commence this plan for life.

    My question is this, just to be clear, and I did buy the New Diet Revolution book and am on Chapter 3 so far.


    Oh yeah, the question...LOL...: Are you NOT supposed to have ANY of the Atkins bars or shakes during induction? Will this retard one from getting into Ketosis?

    Also, I have given up my red wine for now, as I have read that it also hinders ketosis.

    Feedback please!

    it wont stop you getting in ketosis, but they will stall your weightloss, read the ingredients on the bars or shakes, theres lots in them that are not legal for induction so you must wait until the appropriate rungs of OWL to have those.

    Red wine can be had also on OWL, so you're right to cut it out for induction

    Best of luck on your journey!

          Hi Patrick Welcome to ADBB

          You can add your picture to your signature which you can edit by clicking on the 'User CP' link at the top of the page and choosing the 'edit signature' option.

          The picture does need to be hosted somewhere to allow you to copy/paste or link to it. If you dont have a site already you can upload it from your computer to our ADBB gallery - link at the top of the page.
          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!
