    Re: Please Let This Work

    Good Morning Donna,
    Yes, you have the correct book. I would suggest you read through-Before you begin,page 107 and then "And away you go: The Induction Phase pge 121. Read, Read, Read! I hear you on the meat. Still though, watch your portion size on your protein. To much will cause it to turn into glucose and then be stored as fat. 4-6 0z serving of protein is just right at each meal. I have protein in the a.m and at my evening meal. A salad at lunch and or dinner. It's a good idea to spread your veggies out throughout the day.
    Sorry to hear about your infection and your icecream binge. You'll get your footing.
    You should be eating 2 cups off the salad veggies, page 125 and 1 cup of veggies off of the other veggie list 126. Yes, do measure your veggies, so important!
    I have a lot to learn. But from seeing how so many people are losing so many pounds with Atkins, I just have to try harder and read and STUDY and work at making menus and sticking to them.
    You hit it right on there Donna! It is a learning journey. You are going to learn more about your body and how it reacts to food with the Atkins Lifestyle than you ever have in your life. Finding the foods that you are tollerable and intollerable to when moving up the rungs correctly. Study On page 122, Rules of Induction, this is really important for you to know by heart! It will help guide you in this phase.I know what you mean about after dinner sweet cravings. I use to have them too. I'm a sugar/sweetner addict. I found that by taking L-Glutamine that it helps take care of the sweet cravings. You can read about that on page 136 DANDR. It really does work. You can take up to 3000 mg a day.
    Wishing you a great Low Carb Friday. Make sure you drink lots and lots of water Thats all I drink. I found it to be the healthiest beverage to drink with the Atkins Lifestyle

      Re: Please Let This Work

      thanks for all your help. i'm back at work and after being sick just didn't have good choices in the house so i drove thru Jack-In-The-Box and got their big breakfast sandwich--bacon, ham, egg, and cheese. Threw out the bun and ate the rest. seemed to be ok with the program but i don't really trust "fast food" any more. i think they put "instant fat to the hips" in all their food!! i have my list so will stop on the way home and pick up some EGGS, etc. i will also start watching my meat portions. i have been eating too much. i will live by the book for a week and let you know what happens when all your good advice is used. d
