Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

did not exercise yesterday
i am sick with a head cold and cough, i don't think I am exercising today.
Sunday did over a hour of rollerblading, felt like a million dollars now I feel they should be down.

Brian, I hope things are ok.
Look forward to seeing you back on the board but in the mean time take care.

Hi folks
congratulations on getting through the first 14 days intact and on track (more or less)

Now you have passed the first 2 weeks would you like this thread moved so it is in a more relevant place on ADBB?

As it looks as if some of you will be OWLing while some stay on induction for a while longer maybe I should move this thread into the main Atkins forum, and then subsequent 'Atkinites' threads can be started there too?

I am about to log off (after 11 pm over here and I have a full day tomorrow so must get to bed soon) but tomorrow will look here to see what you'all decide.

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

I'm stayin on extended induction for probably two more weeks, then moving on to rung 1 of OWL and see where that takes me. =) Last time I did Atkins successfully, I lost about 20-30 lbs in the first month and a half. Oooh, it was so nice.

Can't wait til tomorrows weigh in! But, I think the Main Forum is fine for now, so we can all merge together and share our stories and boost our motivation that way.

Well, today is day 10 for me being cheatfree and all! =) So much more energy and oooh, damn, even more, I look hot in the mirror already. My pants are falling off my butt and I can't keep them on when I run. Eeeep!

Okay, that's all I have!! Keep up the good work you guys! =) I hope Brian is doing okay. I sure was thinking about him all day today. =(

Tomorrow is the day.. Cannot wait myself.. Very excited and scared at the same time. I have certian expectation in mind, so hopefully the scale meets that expectation tomorrow.

Will update you all.

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

Its weigh in day....according to the scale I lost 4 pounds. I guess thats good seeing that the first week i gained 3 pounds. Dont really understand it but i will take it.

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

make sure to take measurements, this way of life is unlike any other diet, your body will change, trust me.

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

Just got off the scale.. Little disappointed.. Only 4 lbs this week, So during induction I lost a total of 8 lbs, which means I have a high metabolic resistance according to the CCLL chart. Besides, I was expecting more since I quickly lost 2" off my waist!

Well, anyway it is still not bad, at least there is some progress going on.

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

Hey!!!

Congrats to you guys

Jimmy is right, you also have to consider the inches lost..BIG TIME...
I wish I had been measuring, but didn't have a measuring tape at the time
But I am happy to say that I have lost........ 5 LBS in 7 days!!! And I'm sure I lost inches cuz I can feel it and see it in my clothes!!!
Will post some pics up soon

Let's keep going, we are going to finish this!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

Well done guys. Looks like we are all succeeding.

I haven't lost any weight according to the scales this week ( I lost 6lbs last week but I only needed to lose 30 in total to start with so that is a 20% loss). I have lost an inch and a half from my waist and half an inch from each thigh this week so all is good.

I am moving onto OWL rung 1 as of tomorrow but I will still be coming to this thread to see how we are all doing.

Have a good day and keep up the good work.

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

We're going to be moving this thread to the Main atkins forum and for those of us who are going to extended, we go there, and those of us going to owl, we go there. But we will still meet up in the Main Atkin's Forum, just to keep each other motivated! =P I'm almost done with my 14 day cheatfree induction, so once that happens, onto extended for 2 more weeks. =P

Re: Week of November 26 Atkinites =)

Hello everyone,

Well things are going good today, no cheats yesterday or today!! I realized how POOPY I felt after induldging in something I shouldn't. I was not only racked with guilt but I felt bloated and gross.

A little bummer though, I totally over looked the sugars in my salad dressing I've been using~ it has 2g of sugar!! Oh well nix that out and off I go. I'm just glad I noticed now. I used olive oil and oregano on my salad today instead.

One thing I like about atkins is I get full soooo fast! Most times I can't even finish what I put on my plate.

Anyway, I'll check in later. Even if I don't post I read all thats going on!!

Congrats on the 8lbs down Bekka! I bet you're feeling awesome!!
