Hello from the UK

[tomizawa]

Hi all, just started on my journey - finished day three of induction, things are going ok, I'm certainly not hungry, though haven't been able to sleep at all tonight - almost feel like I'm wired with caffeine and started sweating buckets for no reason earlier. Perhaps it's my body saying bye to the carbs.

Welcome to ADBB. Hang in there, the Induction flu will pass soon. Folks sometimes get strange body reactions in the first few days. Soon you will be full of energy (as opposed to wired) and feeling fine!

Hi and welcome –

Glad you decided to join us. I hope you have read the 2002 Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution book -- it's best to have all the information you can have for the best success.

Like Jill said, it sounds like you're transitioning into keotsis - yea! Here's a few things I hope will help:

Don't forget to eat enough vegetables (check the acceptable food list http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-low-carb-dieting-faqs/6781-what-foods-can-eaten-induction.html) - eat enough vegetables - 2 cups from the first list and 1 cup from the 2nd list daily. Many of us use www.Fitday.com to track our food so we know what our carb totals are for the day. It's important you know what you are eating and how many carbs you are taking in each day.

The recipe sites will help keep you from eating the same thing over and over -- check them out!
