On your mark, get set, go!

[Aditi]

Hello!

Ive just started with the Atkins diet. So, today's my 2nd day and I'm trying to keep my mind off sugar...I hope my willpower stays with me...Im taking this 14 days at a time

I had always been a little on the plump side, however now I am not all that "pleasantly" plump...hehe

Have just started browsing through the New Diet Revolution but using the induction tips to start my diet off.

Im 31 years old, 5ft 3" and 65kgs...All the best to everyone!

Hi, Aditi

Welcome to ADBB!

Happy to hear that you have started browsing through DANDR... make sure to read all of it. As someone who has had to make more than one attempt to reach goal and maintain it, I can testify that it really does make a difference to do the plan exactly as outined by Dr. Atkins. I didn't follow closely the first time, and while I was able to lose weight, I never reached goal and didn't have the skills to maintain the loss that I had. This time around I followed the book, and what do you know... it worked!

If you haven't seen this sticky yet, please click on the link and give it a look. There's some useful info there that should help you on your journey. http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...-new-read.html

Good luck!

Welcome to the board! I find that drinking lots of water helps control the sugar cravings. It won't take long for you to lose you 'sweet tooth' on Atkins so hang in there. Good luck.
