    A question for the ladies!

    Hi ladies! I have done Atkins one other time and gave up on the 14th day..I know I was dumb Anyways my question for you is that I wanted to start my induction this week my monthly friend started yesterday! Should I start even with it here or should I postpone until af is finished..I just don't want to start off on the wrong foot! Also how does af affect your weightloss?? Thanks for any advice!

    Re: A question for the ladies!

    Many women gain water weight a few days before/during/a few days after TOM.

    There's no reason to postpone your restart -- you'll do Atkins through many TOMs. Just keep in mind that your weight loss results at the end of Induction will probably be skewed, so the degree of metabolic resistance you'll determine might not be very accurate (it will be lower).

      I had TOM during induction - didn't affect me too much. As Georgiana said...TOM comes around far too often to try to work around it

        Thanks ladies for your responses! I just didn't want it to interfere with my results at the the end of the weeks b/c I know that its an indicator if you should move to OWL or not..I suppose I should stop making excuses!
