On day 2 of induction

[Vanessa_J_R]

Hey everyone,
Im on my 2nd day of induction and doing pretty good so far. I've done atkins before and lost 30 pounds that was over 2 years ago, since the beginning of this school year ive gained about 20 pounds though and would like to lose it. I was at 160 at the start (my highest in a while) and was at 158.8 this morning. I've been eating the bars and the shakes though and i've been hearing bad things about them and think i will have to stop eating them as i dont want to hinder my weight loss. Well I'm kinda excited about having a message board to kinda report to. Good luck to everyone else. I'll report tomorrow

Hello and welcome.
Sorry to say tis true you should try to do your induction "clean". Bars and shakes can slow down your loss. It also is adding more sweetners then you need.
The purpose of induction to go get you to eat natural food.
Now all that said. We are so glad you found us and look forward to having you here a long while :yes

Welcome Vanessa, Glad you found us and hope you like what you see.
I think your decision to leave the bars and shakes for another time is a wise one. A clean induction is absolutely the best way to lose the maximum amount of weight and get the best start on this program. Keep posting and let us know how things are going

Congrats on your decision to start this new wol! I too have been on atkins in the past, actually reading your post, it sounds almost identical to mine! I am on day 3 of the dreaded induction, and so far it has been pretty easy thanks to this group of people! The positivity and just the fact that you have someone to report to, makes it more worth while. If you know that when you cheat you have to come here and admit it, you are less likely to do it, or at least that is the way I feel! So good luck, we will be taking this journey together! Here's to US, and everybody else here!
