    New to Atkins...Day 3 of Induction

    Hi Everyone,

    Just started Atkins on Sunday for the first time. My sister is getting married in June and my maid of honor dress won't zip completely (

    I bought the dress last March (09) and this April (10) I bet I've gained twenty pounds since then.

    I just want a change of life as well. I have terrible eating habits and a sweet tooth. I've tried SlimFast and limiting my calories....but I need a plan that will keep me honest. Whenever I allowed myself to cheat once a week on those plans, it was too easy to stay off track! I have no willpower! So I think Atkins will force me to be honest with what I eat or I won't see the results.

    Here's to a new me!

        That happens around day 3. A lot of people experience what's known as the "Atkins flu". It eventually passes. Just make sure to keep eating right and drink plenty of water.

            Are you eating vegetables? They are required on Atkins.

              Yep! Had a salad with fresh veggies for dinner. I prefer eating a salad for dinner rather than lunch! No, I haven't experienced the atkins 'flu'. hopefully i don't either!
