I am on day 4 and it seems my skin is healthier, dewey, like when I was younger. I'm 42.
Anyone else find this or is it just my imagination?

Re: Skin seems better
Funniest thing was this morning while doing my makeup I realized I don't have my skin breaking out like mad as it has been the past 6 months or so. I was thinking maybe it was just a coincidence, but maybe if you have the same kinda thing it's a result of this WOL? -
Re: Skin seems better
I always had rough skin (almost a rash) on the outside at the top of my arms and very rough skin on the elbows (think sandpaper!!) but now they are both considerably more smooth!!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!

Re: Skin seems better
Well, sugar is a major factor in causing the aging of skin (tons of good info on this online) so maybe it will slow down the appearance of new ones!

Re: Skin seems better
I don't think it's the sugar because I had already switched to splenda a long time ago.
I am almost sure it's not my imagination. I keep touching my face. lolMy Stats:

Re: Skin seems better
Also, remember that when you are eating this way, you are excluding a lot of junk and when it clogs up your body it only has 2 ways to come out, 1 is the skin and the other way is you know where!! lol!
One last thing, I don't know how many of you have food allergies/intolerances, but that can also cause your skin to breakout and with Atkins, you exclude so many of those things, I love this way of life!!
