First week of Induction = 6 lbs gone!!

[liabird]

Hubby and I made it through our first week of induction!! I am amazed at the differences in both of us, especially me since I can feel it! I no longer have heart palpitations or "crashes" after eating, I feel steady and although I haven't had an energy surge, I just feel normal all day. I put on a pair of jeans that two weeks ago were uncomfortably tight and they fit fine!! I just feel better in general and I've noticed the ketosis taste in my mouth actually is better than the up and downs changes in taste I used to have all the time. The best way for me to describe how I feel is "even keel." Even my mood has evened out and I no longer go from happy to upset so quickly. Can't wait to see what next Monday brings!!

Hi Lia and Mark in Alaska.
Way to go you too.
Nice to see such a postive message.
Atkins really rocks.

Congratulations on the end of week 1 -- you'll see the further you get into the plan how much better you feel .... and after awhile you won't want to go back to the way you use to eat!!

Thanks for the well-wishes! I still struggle with wanting to eat certain, seemingly random foods at times, but I just think to myself that those foods are what got me to where I was before I started Atkins and I have no desire to go back there! Thanks again!!
