  • Sex Drive and CHEESE ????!!!!????

    HI EVERYONE

    I am on Day two of induction but I just found this messageboard and it seems awesome so I am planning to write on here what I ate everyday and maybe some of you can join me an we can help each other out.

    I am new to Atkins and I realized that in order for me to do this the right way, i have to be honest with my self and weigh myself and put also my measurements and everything up here. Because i just gained all this weight recently and I believe that i was in denial for the LONGEST time, not wanting to admit that I was obese because I could still find cute clothes that fit me and i still got attention from the opposite sex. HOWEVER, I DONT NEED MY BMI OF 33 TO TELL ME THAT WELL, LETS FACE IT I AM FAT.

    so here we go with the measurements:


    Height: 5'4
    Bust: 44 inchs
    Waist: 34 Inchs
    Hipps:45 inchs
    GOAL : 140 lbs
    Current Weight: 186 lbs OUCHHHHH this one hurt to admit, especially since i have NO muscle mass whatsoever ... just FAT !!!

    Ok well my food log:


    Breakfast: mahi mahi fillet sauteed in butter and olive oil with a cup of butter sauteed mushrooms ... yummy .... ( i wake up around noon so i dont really crave regular breakfast foods.... plus i dont like egggs and when i think of bacon i have to throw up ... sorry )

    Lunch: some roasted costco chicken with 3 slices of provolone cheese( about 3 oz) and a cup of romaine lettuce with some mayo

    DInner: 3 slices of provolone and 1 oz of fresh mozzarella drizzled with olive oil ... hmmm took me rite back to italy for a sec

    NOW HERE IS MY DILEMMA: I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE CHEESE !!!! I THINK MY BODY ACTUALLY CRAVES THE CALICUM SINCE I AM USED TO DRINKING TONS OF MILK , SO MY QUESTION IS : IS IT OK TO HAVE THE EXTRA OUNCES OF CHEESE IF I DONT EXCEED MY ALLOWED CARBS PER DAY AND GET A LITLE OVER TWO CUPS OF SALAD VEGGIES ???


    pLEASE say yessss ... ANYONE .... lol

    My other question is that I read that being on the atkins diet can affect your sex drive , some people loose it completely whereas some people well you know, the opposite

    personally i fall under the second category and even though it is good exercise right, i wonder if that does have anyhng to do with the limited amount of carbs we are eating ...


    and truth to be told, i really dont like ANY other sort of exercise , and i wont plan on exercising until i stop loosing weight, then i will drag my fat *** to the gym .. I know its bad and I should be, so please no lectures about How I should be excercising ... I just wanted to be honest with you

    WOW, this feels good already, i am looking forward to you guyses answers and Ohhh before I forget

    WHO HAS GOOD INDUCTION RECIPES ??? please help me out cuz the roasted, broiled, sauteed meat/hamburger/fish and cheese gets boring aftr a while.... m ( well the cheese part never does) hahaha

    My sex drive has been absolutely unstoppable! Hmmm cheese has something to do with it? That explains that mouse that lives in my wall trying to hump my cat. Interesting.

            It's really too much for induction, you should try to stick with 3 or 4 ounces a day and see how that works for you. It does slow down weight loss for a lot of people. And get all your veggies in, not just the salad ones!

              Ooops sorry! Yeah 7-8 ounces is way too much for induction. That could hinder your weight loss. Now, if you want to spread your cheese out, you could make cheese sauces using some butter and chicken stock and maybe a little cream....Use shredded cheese on salads. Use some other fats to take the place of some of that cheese. The more fat you use in your diet in the beginning will help deepen your ketosis and also suppress your appetite. Keep in mind too, that those 7-8 ounces of cheese is 7-8 carbs a day. You want to be using your carbs in your 3 cups of veggies.

                Do you like olives? Substitue some of the cheese for 8-10 olives as a snack (high fat too) or what about avacado? Substitute that for some of the cheese--mix some mayo, salt and pepper, a little tomato and a little onion to make a guacamole.

                Those are all high fat "snacks" that'll help deepen the ketosis/appetite suppression
