Day 2

[Lissy's Mommy]

Good Morning all.
Well Yesterday Was a challenge. I took my daughter to a birthday party and there was all kinds of food. All illegal of course, not a veggi in site. Lucky they were serving BBQ pulled pork sandwiches. So I just ate the pork I am sure the BBQ sauce was not legal but " I waaas hungry". I drank water all day also I think I did pretty well. OK I confess I did have a spoon of cake but honestly only a spoonful.
Question: I did take sunflower seeds with the shell, just to keep my mouth occupied so I wouldn't grab anything I shouldn't be eating. Dint have much. All the yapping was enough to keep my mouth busy. lol! any ways not sure if I am suppose to have seeds yet. Can any one let me know?
Well this morning I will be going for a 1/2 mile walk and 30 min of Cardio. Hoping to make up for any slipping that took place yesterday. Wish me luck!

Re: Day 2

No, seeds aren't until Rung 3 of OWL. Sounds like you did pretty well though. Congrats on the water intake - it's so important!

Hi and welcome to ADBB.

We recommend you get a copy of the 2002 Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution (DANDR) the book we use for reference on this site. Until you can get a copy of the book check the stickies (information posts) at the top of the induction page - http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-diet-14-day-induction/77558-atkins-diet-induction-faqs.html – it’s a condensed version of everything you’ll need to know. Even through the stickies are a good start they don’t detail the entire program, so that’s why we suggest you have the book to follow.

Post often, ask questions join some of the challenges - the more you use the forum the more you'll get out of it.

Before you start:
*take your measurements and get on the scale so you have accurate numbers to start with - don't weigh again until the end of your 2 week induction.
*Eat a variety of meats, cheeses and vegetables. Also make sure you get your fats, carbs and protein in daily – www.fitday.com will help you keep track of this.
*Drink 64 ounces of pure water -nothing added daily (Legal water is considered Filtered water, Mineral water, Spring water and Tap water).
*Take your supplements and start an exercise routine today.

The Atkins shakes and bars (as well as other brand names of these products) are not legal on induction – there are non-induction ingredients in them and they are not listed on the acceptable food list.

If a food isn’t listed on the acceptable food list it doesn’t belong in your mouth – no exceptions! Look at the ingredients list and check it against the acceptable food list -- just because it says "low carb" doesn't mean you can eat it.

The recipe sites are a helpful meal planning tool – just make sure you use Induction Recipes to begin with.
