Should I restart?

[carcol29]

Hi All....

after being on atkins for 23 days, I lost 4lbs. I realized I was doing alot of things wrong:
1-Day 1 was my day 1 of TOM too
2-I was eating too much protein
3-not eating enough veggies
4-occasionally cheating
5-had some coffee or 1 caffeine pill for help during workouts
6-not drinking my 64oz of water
7-not exercising daily
8-eating the atkins bars

So there was my recipe for an unsuccessful 23 days.
I took about 4 days off and now I am debating whether I should start again and do this right! I have read the book and now understand it. I realized I feel much better on atkins, less bloated and my skin was better.

What do you think...should I wait until TOM is over (which is now) and start up again? Any advice would be great....thank you!!!

You can't start again, the time is gone. You should move onto OWL considering you don't have that much weight to lose.

Oh and don't touch the atkins bars, they stall/slow some people's weight loss.

Good luck with everything

No reason to wait.

If you want to do Atkins as a lifestyle, then start now.

You can't undo the past, but you can move forward and correct your mistakes.

Why do you think this is something you did "wrong"?
