  • Why does this induction feel worse than my last time ?

    Ugh, I am on day 3 and the terrible headache is still here. It's never stopped actually.

    This induction feels ten times worse than the last time I went through it.

    Why is that? Are "restarts" harder on your system or something?

    Not uncommon

    It is not uncommon for induction to be worse a second orthird time around. Popular opinion says it is because after you stop your previous attemp, you tend to get even more addicted on the foods you weren't eating before and so your body has to wean itsself harder off all the sugar and junk before your system is clear again. And some people just have a rougher induction than others. Also, if you drank a lot of caffeine before, it is **** weaning off it. I have heard a lot of coffee drinkers have a rough 4 days on induction. I have been on and off Atkins about 8 or 9 times and I had a few that were bad but this last time, I was smart enough not to re-addict myself on too much of my former junk food and so induction this time around has been wonderful. I feel great and I am 3 days in already but it's early days! lol! I may feel like crap tomorrow, who knows (just because I opened my big mouth!). But take some aspirin and hang in there, God willing it will pass and you will be on your way.

      we sufer from slective memory loss of bad events .

      Last time you didn't know what was coming and this time you do, or you could just have a headache from something else as not everthing that happens ion our lives will be caused by our Atkins.

      Are you drinking all your water? Hang in there cause you know what is just the other side of this induction flu.

      Happy low carbing.
