it is working because you are burning up your protein stores right now for any metabolic amino acids you need and you are using fats for your energy needs BUT you can do the exact same thing if you just drink water for 3 days it is not a permenant change is what the folk were telling you.
So now that your fat fast is done what do you plan to do go back to over eating your Atkins again? Doing Atkins correctly means we eat only enough food to satisfy our hunger at the time we are eating and then we stop no matter how much food is on our plates, room in our belly nor carbs in our budget. we stop period and do not eat again until we are hungry or the 6 hour rule applies.
Lets look at what changes you have made dioing the fat fast.
you have drastically lowered your caloric intake Dr Atkins said any diet plan that did that would work.
you are on your current eating if you are using the 1000 cal 90% fast fat fast rapidly depeleting your protein stores andthe first thing your body will do when you stop is replenish them with fluids too hence you didn't get the fat body weight loss you wanted. if you are using the modified fat fast in chapter 20 of your DANDR you are still depleting your protein stores and on a lower cal plan.
So your 3 days are up and you have lost pounds and lean body mass not what you wanted to do.
If you were doing your Atkins induction correctly and looking at your menu it appears you wre over eating your protein and foods in general and undereating your fats you would be adding lean body mass and burning off your body storage mass as your body morphed while you didn't get a scale weight change. This morphing would make you smaller in the right places as muscle is denser then fat so it takes up less room. Musckle is also 75% water so it has more weight inch for inche then fat and it alsoburns more cals just being on you about 25 per day per pound of muscle so you could maintain your new higfher metabolism better to keep that goal size longer.
You need to get back to your induction veggies and move to OWL as you should already be in Premaintenance since you have less then 10 pounds to go!
Build your house of Atkins on that induction strong foundation with OWL foods tested and accepted for your metabolism timbers on not fat fast straw if you want it to last a life time.
