Hi guys, I'm a newbie here on the ADBB. I'm Tim, male 5'4 190lbs and sick and tired of being so conscious of my weight, so I actually thought about doing something about it this time around. Although not really a newbie in the atkins diet, its my third time around doing it. My first time was a success, i lost all of the 30 lbs and then some to get down to 135lbs. I kept the weight off for almost 2 years, then i started gaining back some till i got to 175, then decided I was getting any skinnier
duh! so I went for my second try, on the session with atkins i found it hard to lose weight it seems like my body got used to it already. I didn't lose much during the induction as I did the first time. only managed a measly 10 lbs, during induction and a week on OWL, I was disappointed, and that made me stop the diet and went on bingeing till im now 190lbs
. But a week and two days ago I started again, within the last week while searching the net for atkins stuff, I stumbled across this site. I read alot of the threads realizing that I'm not alone in this situation. I know right now my progress is the same as my second time....slow as a turtle. Does any body know if the body gets used to this diet that the metabolism slows down in burning fat?
