Words Of Encouragement

[jjs1971]

Hi everyone! I just started the Atkins plan three days ago. Honestly, I wondered how in the world I would get through it! For the first two days I felt as if I had been hit by a Mac truck! I was tired, irritable, clammy, felt in a fog, etc. However, today is day three and I am starting to feel fabulous! I am still hungry, but physically I feel pretty darn good. I feel about 1000 times better than I did the last couple of days. I know this will be quite a journey, but I want to let everyone who is just starting out know that IT DOES GET BETTER! I understand that withdrawl times are different for everyone, but please know that it is possible to feel better by day three. Good luck to all. Let's all stay strong and motivated together!

Glad it's going well.

If you're hungry, eat!

There's no reason to be hungry on Atkins.

Welcome to ADBB!!

Plan your meals for a fews days so you have everything in your home and you won’t be tempted to eat something not allowed. Drink a minimum 64 ounces of pure water (nothing added), exercise and take a non-iron multivitamin daily. Look at the challenges to see if there is anything that interests you - start a journal, it's a great place to get everything out in the open, be accountable to yourself - you'll also meet some great people there! http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...journal-chats/. There’s something for everyone here!

Check Linda's recipe site it will help keep you from eating the same thing over and over -- http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/menus.html . If you need anything we’re here to help you!!

Good luck to you!
