HI there!
My name is Nicolas, and my wife and I have been on our induction period since March 19, 2007, 8 days today, although we did try to start on the 18th but realized we were not doing it right.
Before that we tried a lot of different diets (we even went veggie) and because I also do weight training and cardio, I was aware of the crazy "cutting diets" that the body builders put themselves through before their competitions, but I wanted to try something less crazy and less homemade, and a with a bit more medical reasoning behind.
When I told my wife I was going to go Atkins, she decided to jump in and we've both lost quite a few pounds and we're surprised by the progress so far.
I don't know if it is cutting the fat producing carbs and sugar, portion control, or the logic behind the Atkins diet, but so far it is working and I have been able to concentrate at work and on my commute, work out, and family function. Wifey binged a couple times on carbs (her downfall) and myself on caffeine (my downfall), but we try it hard and we may simply push the induction period by a couple weeks.
