    Re: A question about salads

    Thanks ladies!! O.k. so I'll finish up this week on Induction and starting Monday I will start OWL rung 1.

    However, I'm still concerned about the carbs. I don't know why, all this time I've been thinking that your weight stalls if you're not eating close to the 20 carbs in Induction. Hmmmmm........ I better go back and read the book.

    Thanks again to everyone!

      The maximum of 20 carbs was picked by Dr Atkins as being the amount almost everyone will lose on, so it is what gives us the most chance of losing a lump of weight quickly and feeling happy about lowcarbing.

      Depending on your metabolism you might have a CCLL of many more carbs than 20, which moving to OWL will help you find. We had one member who posted when in OWL that she was worried about being up to 100 net carbs but still losing weight hand over fist and asking how to slow her weightloss down!!

      Thinks aloud - I wonder what happened to Loonatika?
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

        Wow! Are you serious? I wish I had the same problem about not being able to stop weight loss. How blessed is that. O.k., I made a decision to move on to OWL on Monday (new week). Thanks.

          Seems unlikely, but yes, it really happened http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...ead.php?t=6857
