Newbie here

[Hazeleyez32]

Hello everyone,
My name is Dee. I started Atkins 3/9/09. I'm down 5.6lbs so far. I think thats ok.
Today is my 9th day and to be honest I have no appetite whatsoever. I don't feel like eating at all. Has this happened to anybody else if so what did you do?
I've been reading the threads and I've seen so many people here be helpfull to others so I'm hoping that someone can help me. I'm looking forward to talking with everyone and sharing my success on Atkins.
Good luck to everyone out there.

Welcome Dee! i havent had much of an appetite and have to remind myself to eat. during those times i munch on Cucumbers and ranch. when i dont have them around... well i munch on pork rinds. Me eating at dinner time is the worst!! I am interested in how everyone else responds!

Welcome to the board Dee! It's common to lose your appetite for awhile but it will come back. Just keep nibbling on meat and veggies and try not to undereat because if you go into starvation mode, it will hold you back. Check out the recipe forum for ideas for snacks and meals.

You seem to be doing great so keep it up!
