When to Weigh In for First Time?

Hi Guys!

I was just wondering when you guys weighed in for the first time after starting induction. Ie. When is the time where I might notice a loss? 7 days? Earlier? Later?

Thanks!

Some people notice a loss in just a day or two, but general consensus is a weekly weigh in is best. Some folks say to wait until the end of induction, but I know how hard that would be to do! Since you've done it before, you know how much your weight can fluctuate on Atkins, so weighing every day could get frustrating. If you can hold off for a week, that's ideal. Best of luck!

I weighed in after one week. What a shock to see a ten pound loss. I agree with Adena about the weight fluctuating. I've started to weigh myself a little more and I'm noticing gains and losses. Give those losses time to stick and your WOE will be a lot less stressful.

THanks so much again! I think I will wait until Wednesday for sure!!!! That'll be 7 days!

Thanks Tim, too! I really want to weigh in today but fear that if I don't see a loss it might be discouraging. It's day four of induction for me.
