  • Why dont I feel rubbish like others am I doing something wrong?

    Hi
    After reading many posts most people say they feel ill at about 3-4 days. Well am I doing something wrong? I feel absolutely fine, as much energy as ever.

    Thanks San x

    You are one of the lucky ones!! Take advantage of this by getting your exercise in and enjoy the food choices!
    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!

      Do you want to "feel like rubbish"?

      Seriously, just because you feel fine, it doesn't mean you're doing something wrong. I felt fine, too.

          San, was your pre-Atkins diet heavy on processed/packaged foods, carbs and sugar? If not, then your body doesn't need intense detoxing (which results in that "rubbish" feeling).

          I switched to Atkins after doing South Beach with a whole foods approach. I had no induction flu problems at all.

          If your pre-Atkins diet was full of junk, then you are just lucky!

              I know quite a few who escape the slings and arrows of the dreaded induction flu.

              While you're about as rare as Pamela Lee sans botox injections, you do exist.

              Congratulations on smooth sailing!

                I had a 24 can a day diet coke addiction to kick so I had a huge headache but none of the other induction flu symptoms. Be haoppy yuou are doing so well and keep working your atkins both the eating and mandatory exercise part to become the smaller healtheir you.

                      I never got ill feeling either. I didn't eat alot of sugar or carbs. What got me to my current weight was drinking wine and I stopped exercising but continued to eat and drink like I was still exercising.
