  • hurray i lost 11 pounds /5 kgs

    I AM OVER THE MOON. i lost 11 pounds in 2 weeks. i am feeling great , faboulus and have loads of confidence. i actually started my atkins diet on 1st of november . but i was down with swine flu for a week since 2nd of november .still i tried to continue the lifestyle until i was so sick with the flu and tablets that i was only able to drink thin soup and broth. on the 2nd week i went back to work(i work 12 hr night shifts) but i was still in awful state, i couldn't breath by the second night . back to the doctor who diagnosed i am asthmatic . a really bang on my head!!!!. i felt guilty , i knew from within my heart that i brought myself to that position. years of overeating ,heaps of rice and tortilla, oh i nearly forget 4-6 packs of noodles per day . i was addicted to it . i loved the taste of the spice packet which came with it. anyway that visit was the reality check time. i was young and longing to have a family with my lovely husband.wanna be more attractive and curvy at the right place.

    my journey started then and there . i knew this was my path and i wanna do it. for a healthy me and healthy family.my husband was concerned of me eating all eggs, meat , cream ,very restricted veggies,no milk, no fruits and no noodles or rice.
    but now he supports me to do it and he is seeing the changes with his own eyes. i was 52 in waist before and now a 48.5 in (lost 3.5 in ) . my hubby dear can get his arms around it comfortably. which i think is the highlight of the induction. and could see the happiness in his eye. he is a very slient person. an he communicates mostly with his nonverbal actions.
    i am thankful to all who supported me during the induction period especially kent , jimmy and christine moore, all friends in ADBB -atkinsgirl08,chinadoll aka jill,georgina,imagood1aka carole,sallyseachange,and elizellen.

    i am moving to extended induction for 2 months from today onwards . and i am gonna try new recipes and post on my blog( atkins life) with pictures(i got my camera fixed )
    see u all soon

    1st goal-under 110 achvd (6/12/09)

      What a great start to your Atkins journey

      Keep up the good work!!
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

            Congratulations, Milie!

            You might want to reconsider your strategy and move to OWL sooner. Staying in "extended" Induction seldom leads to the same weight loss rate as that experienced in your first two weeks.

            And remember that Atkins is about learning how to eat for life, not about losing weight fast. Give yourself time to move slowly through OWL. In my opinion, that is essential to success.
