  • Less sleep required

    I'm on day 5 of induction and have noticed the last few nights I've been falling asleep later and waking up earlier. I actually wake up feeling more refreshed but with less sleep. Has anyone experienced this, too? Is this one of the huge pros of Atkins, too?

    I think it's one of the huge pros of Atkins. I'm still tired in the morning when our sweet baby wakes up at 5:30a.m. HA! I'm less tired throughout the day though.

      It's one of the pro's. Isn't it great?!!!

      Back in the day...when I did this my first time around...I used to litterly HOP out of bed at 4:30 am, excited to work out! ME...the person that LOVES sleeping till 10 (on a work day!) and who HATES working out. I hope to get back to being that hop out of bed person again.

      Realistic Final Goal: 190
      Stretch Goal: 140


      Successfully did Atkins in 1998 using 1992 copy of the book...before it was "hip". Lost 60lbs, exercised daily, felt and looked great. And then I moved in with a junk-food loving man, my mom got sick and passed away, then I suffered a spinal cord injury, and junk-food dude left me...and now I weigh 292lbs. That's 22lbs MORE than I weighed the first time around. It's 10 years later...I know this will work for me again.

        Happened to me today! After being in such a slump yesterday, what a difference! I'm sure it'll take some getting used to.
