hold up buddy

well do not count calories while on this diet. it is High fat low carb and if you try a lowfat/calorie version.. it will not work.

good luck! if you are on induction stop by our 14 day induction forum for more support ha

Well, it depends.

While on Atkins we don't necessarily count calories in the begining. We count carbs.

right.. I highly recommend reading DANDR.. I made that mistake in the beginning not reading it. as long as you eat liberally and not leisurely.. youll be fine

just remember eat until your satisfied atkins isnt about gorging yourself.

why don't you use www.fitday.com ?

Type in the current weight and height, and it will give you a minimal number of calories to eat, just to survive ie for your basal metabolism. It even calculates for you any additional activities you do, and shows how much calories you need.

It doesn't mean you have to reach that number or that you have to worry if you go over - it's just a guideline. I find that I eat much less than the recommended number of calories in one day.

Also, if you're training and taking measurements, www.mybodycomp.com is a good site for helping you with calculations.
