Hi there,
After 2 weeks I have officially finished induction but will prbably do another 1 - 2 weeks. I am a 44 M and my doctor told me to lose
20kg (44lb), as I was diagnosed with Diabetes 2 and very overweight
97kg (213lb) for about 10-13 years.
I started eating better foods for 2 weeks and dropped 3kg (7lb) and then went onto Atkins induction and dropped another 6kg (14lb) also in 2 weeks for
a total of 9kg (21lb), over 5% of my body weight.
Not only have I stuck to induction but I have worked out about 3 hours
a day for 6 days and now I work out for about 30mins very strenuously of
the 90mins. Walking, running and weights, lucky I used to be very athletic
when younger.
I have 2 great children and finally realised I am not invincible and needed
to take responsibility for my health, I was rushed to Emergency then Intensive Care for about 5 days with the diabetes, my diet was so bad,
my blood sugar was 10 times the norm and above what most nurses and young doctors had ever seen.
I am around halfway to my goal, but must say I will stick with Atkins and
can say for sure that he is a lifesaver.
All the best to those venturing on the journey and I think this board is
awesome.
