Re: What phase of Atkins are you in?
i have been on atkins since june'04,i had been in a 7month stall
but i was patient i tried everything ,went back to induction (no loss)went down to 5 carbs daily and cut out all dairy,coffee etc.
no results,finally i started doing different fasts (found how on google searches) and would lose a few pounds but stall was stubborn
but this will be a way of life for me i did not cheat,finally i read (google search) that some people reach their goal doing low carb and most people stop losing far from their goal
that was me i still had 100 lbs to go the article said these people had to start counting calories and fat as well as carbs,i really resisted i did not want to count fat or calories,but i slowly started to do this and i am losing weight again with 67 more pounds to lose now it will probably take me another year/6mts. but i am determined.i envy the people reaching their goal doing straight atkins,i just my plan takes me to my goal. hope my statements are acceptable in this forum

Re: What phase of Atkins are you in?
Not sure if I read the post right but on Atkins you have to count calories also. The point is that if you control your calories and keep them in a fat and protien context, then you should lose weight at an accelerated rate and improve your overall health.

I think it's 60% fat, but I'm not sure of the ratio for the protein and carbs... I too am stalling right now. But it's only week 3 for me and from what I hear, it's fairly normal to stall for a little in the beginnnig... I hope!!

This is my first day...so i'm in 14-day induction. I am excited. I have been searching this bulletin board for months, now I think i'll give low carb a try. Everyone's success is awsome! I can't wait to share mine.
