New to Atkins

[miwachiru]

Hey all! I haven't had the time to post around here yet, but I signed up today and made a ticker for my weight loss!

I have been on Atkins since March 1st, so I am 1 week through Induction, and I feel GREAT!

Any tips are appreciated!

Welcome to the board, Eddy!

I've noticed your signature. I assume you didn't lose that much weight in one week of induction... but however you did it, congratulations!

Wow, have you really lost 17 pounds in 8 days? If so, that's an amazing start.

I'm glad you feel great! Most of us do when we eat this way. It's one of the best things I can do for myself.

Definitely read the book. If you don't already have it please pick up a copy of "Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution" (2002). That way you'll set yourself up to have the greatest health and success.

Exercise as much as possible, but make sure to include rest days.

Drink water.

Plan ahead so you have plenty of legal food accessible for snacks and meals. One of the worst things is to be terribly hungry and not have good choices around.

It sounds like you are doing a very good job so far. Keep it up and you'll be moving towards your goal at a good pace.

Thanks everyone for the words of advice. I already bought the book DANDR (2002). A doc I work with recommended it to me, and thats what got this whole ball rolling!
