  • Atkins post-pregnancy

    I had my daughter almost 5 months ago.
    This is day 5 for me, and i had to get on the scale ( even though i said i wouldnt, i need the motivation) ....and it said 205. Which is about a pound more then what i was when i started.
    I did weigh myself later on during the day.
    But could it be possible that this WOE doesnt work for me anymore? Being that my body is just totally different now from having a baby.
    Any feed back would be appreciated, thanks
    I'll be 23 next month.
    I have a wonderful/supportive bf and a daughter who is a year and a half old.
    If I cant lose the weight for myself, I'll do it for her!

    You should not compare your morning weight with your noon/evening/etc. weight. My night weight (right before I go to bed) is about 2 lbs above what I weigh in the morning.

    Atkins works as long as you follow it by the book. Just be patient.

      Can you tell us what you are eating and drinking Courtney. You are doing so well with your exercising and water. I am sure your pounds will come off too but lets see if there is anything with your menu that can be tweaked.

        Hi there

        I have had two children and it seems to be working well

        You may have just eaten something... it is best to weigh in the morning.

        Be patient and you will get there xxx

          Also, if you are breastfeeding, the weight loss Phases of Atkins are not appropriate.
