12lb loss on day 5

[thenewme2009]

Hey everyone,

just thought I would share my amazing weight loss. I know I shouldnt weigh before 1 week on induction but I just cant resist plus it gives me a great boost to see that this wonderful life changing diet is working. Does anyone think that this is way too much weight loss for 5 days? I have another 46lbs to go! To anyone thats a bit sceptical of trying this diet I urge you to give it a go! I had my reservations, Im not saying that its a walk in the park but its certainly alot easier than weight watchers or any other belly buster diets out there!

Anyway just thought Id share

Have a good weekend xxx

That is great. I would not worry unless you're feeling unwell or have stopped eating or something.
It is great that you can lose that fast.

I'm on day two and lost 3 lbs. I have set my goal for 76 lbs so I guess I am at 73 left. I really am looking for a buddy to work with on this. Nobody I know is willing to do this with me and Weight Watchers and all the measure the food count the calories just is not for me. Keeping it simple is what I need. Ifound a great Whey Protien shake to have in the AM and PM that has 0 cabs and tastes GREAT! I think it will help me when I feel like cracking. Are you working out as well or just the AD. I hope by day 7 I am down by 12 that is very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.

Well done newme and minimac for your losses so far

I notice minimac that you are intending to use protein shakes a couple of times a day - better to eat food rather than add too much protein in a drink

Remember Dr Atkins did say that excess protein will be converted into glucose, and that Atkins is a high fat/medium protein/lowcarb way of eating, not a high protein one.

Re: 12lb loss on day 5

Thanks Elizellen, wow your before after is GREAT!!! You go girl LOL. I did sort of kinda forgot that. I have to pull out my book again. Today was Day 3 and things were good. I packed my food in little containers and programed my cell phone alarm for ever 3.5 hours so I could rememebr to eat. I know REMEMBER to eat yes. That seems to be my issue. I do not eat all day long and then I come home load up and fall asleep. SO I at all day and kept carb count well under the 15 and now I am ready for bed. I too am a scale freak so I weighted myself ,,,, 246 so five pounds on day 3. I had regular energy today but I am waiting for that crazy burst of energy to hit, that should happen by day what???? Someone please tell me. Iona, you can do it. I am excited to see you here raring to go.

Well Hello ladies today is day 5 and 7 lbs gone. I feel very good and I wish I had hit 12 but I am very happy to be getting smaller. I guess I just decided that this is the time to do this so no holding back. Should I have lost more on Day five ?
