  • Wow! It really works!

    Hi all -

    Been visiting the forums for a bit so thought I'd jump in and say "Hi!" to all.

    I started Atkins on the advice of a couple of friends just over four weeks ago and I have already managed to lose 13 pounds.

    I am so impressed by it. It has been a struggle at times as I don't really like meat or fish but the veggies on these boards have had some great ideas.

    Well done to all those doing so well on here and to those new to Atkins, it really does work!

    Chunky, welcome to the board!

    I'm not sure if you're a fan, but tofu is allowed on induction, as it counts as a soy "cheese". It's really versatile. I eat tofu all the time! Just make sure you count the carbs for it.

    Best of success.
