Re: Anyone starting Atkins tomorrow!

Afternoon all, how is day 1 going for everyone?
I'm doing well so far, had eggs and ham for breakfast, corned beef salad for lunch and dinner is going to be turkey steaks with bns!

I know it sounds stupid but i'm feeling better already, i've drunk lots of my water and just 'feel' better in myself already!

Re: Anyone starting Atkins tomorrow!

For those who don't know -- Linda's site is a wonderful recipe place with pictures for each meal...it is a must have to keep yourself from having the same thing over and over. Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes - Daily Menus there is a link for induction friendly menu's as well as things you can eat later. The stuffed green peppers are wonderful (my favorite) -- before I came to the Atkins WOE I wouldn't have eaten a stuffed green pepper to save my soul!

Ok - I'm awake and it's day 1. Going to have 2 scrambles eggs w/ham and hot sauce on top for breakfast - and 1 oz of raw zucchini (something else I wouldn't eat before!!).

Good luck to all.

Re: Anyone starting Atkins tomorrow!

Day 1 and so far I have had a 2 egg omelet with 3 strips of bacon and onions - no cheese. I also have had some deviled eggs for snacks and so far 3 9-0z waters - I am feeling stuffed and bloated...so I am not sure when I am going to eat lunch. What is everyone else eating?

Re: Anyone starting Atkins tomorrow!

Oh, and I have not been able to find any spaghetti sauce that does not have sugar in it. Any ideas? The pizza bites sound great, but I don't want any sugar...Thanks

Re: Anyone starting Atkins tomorrow!

Ladies,

Any worries I had of being alone on this journey were very short lived..lol

My first day went well, a little craving here and there but all in all it went well. Apart from me forgetting my fork at home....I couldnt eat my salad but caught up on my veggies this evening

I cooked all my meals for this week and froze them, that way I have no excuse when I get back from work.

I havent put my stats up because I dont have a weighing machine yet! Will pick one up over the weekend.

Keep the faith ladies, I know we can do it...
