New Comer to Atkins

[ikindred]

Hi.......I just bought my Atkins book this morning and I am starting today. I have never tried Atkins before, but I have heard people have great results so I thought I would give it a try. I am currently 160lbs and my goal weight is 140lbs.

By the way, how do you get the tickler?

Re: New Comer to Atkins

Does sucralose or splenda work against you during induction?

Welcome ikindred,

As far as the question splenda or sucrose working against you, you will have to see that for yourself. Some people can't do sweetners because it stalls the loss. Others seem to be okay with it.

Remember, I believe the rule is only 3 sweetened carbs a day!! Don't forget!!

Oh yes, and drink lots of water. That has helped me alot!

I know I ramble on about that all the time, but its true!

Thanks and nice to have you on board!
