appetite was suppressed. Had to make sure I ate at certain times otherwise I'd forget. It's amazing how my desire to eat changed in the course of 72 hours. Only ate 3 meals plus a snack, twas all. Full of energy, kept walking and walking and... Hit an energy crisis before dinner but that could be due to less than 4 hours sleep the previous night. Had an awesome night sleep. Me wife said once I fell asleep I stayed there, didnt move. Usually I toss and turn and SNORE. Which I never believed, however last night she said I didnt. Possible?? WAter intake maintained at over a gallon. NO CRAVINGS WHATSOEVER. This really works as stated in the book and I've read in previous postings. I figured nothing could be that easy. But you know what? It is. I am open to any and all suggestions. Progress. Thank you and God Bless, Joe

Re: On the 3rd day of Atkins...
Great start! You wait until you see the weight loss too - you will be even more enthused!
Re: snoring. My sister snores and her partner said she stopped when doing Atkins so it is perfectly possible. I think wheat etc. can cause snoring (allergies).

Re: On the 3rd day of Atkins...
My husband has stated to me the same thing. He really notices a difference when I loose a couple of extra pounds I stop snoring, as opposed to when I have those few extra pounds packed on me.
Strange, but true.Comment

Re: On the 3rd day of Atkins...
My partner has stopped snoring since he started Atkins, and I sleep much better than I ever did in the past, and it started very early on too, on the first few days of induction. I also wake up to some internal alarm clock I never knew I had - I don't even set an alarm anymore, I just wake, whereas before I'd always hit snooze multiple times.
You are doing great, and believe me it'll just get better. I doubt you even need to be told to keep it going

Re: On the 3rd day of Atkins...
WOW. The support is overwhelming and I appreciate everyone's kind words and input. Funny how lots of conditions are cured with the loss of some weight and a change in diet. Would be nice at the end of my 2 weeks that I step on the scale and see numbers instead of the "ERR" message.(scale only goes to 350 so that is me first mini goal). Not computer savvy otherwise I'd do up my sig the way some members have. Thank you again and good luck to you all. God Bless, JoeComment
