    Hiya,

    I am on day 3 of atkins and have lost 2lbs- which I guess is mostly water at this stage- never done atkins or any low carb before- but did loose 126lbs a few years ago on WW.

    I had my second child and have put some of that weight back on- managed to loose about 30lbs with lots of exercise (went on slim fast for a few weeks too ) but have about another 30 to go.

    I have researched and read the book- but what I am amazed at is how well I feel and I'm not hungry- I have never been on a diet where I don't feel hungry (always have headaches too!) Is this yet to come?!

    Welcome to ADBB!

    You shouldn't ever be hungry on Atkins ... that's one of the advantages.

    As to headaches ... hard to know ... not everyone has them as a result of Induction.

          Welcome to ADBB. I tried WW and always felt hungry. Also got tired of thinking about food and what I could eat all day. I love Atkins because I know what I can have and don't have to be hungry. If you are already on Day 3 sounds like you may be one of the lucky folks who don't have a rough Induction!
