Hi! New to this website! Day 2 of Induction
Hi all
! New to this website, I was looking for support/encouragement and I found ya'll! I did Atkins last year and lost 27 lbs. Then for some reason, decided to put anything I wanted in my mouth. It took me about 4 months, but I have gained 17 lbs back. Thing is, I feel bigger than I did before, almost like I gained it ALL back in my stomach and hips.
Anyways, I have read the book and feel pretty good about re-starting again. I have a couple of questions though (and Im apologizing in advance) After searching a couple of websites I read that once you gain the weight back its twice as hard to loose it again even if you do the diet exactly the way your suppose to. And, I like to do happy hour with my qirlfriends, this is a frequent thing. I know alcohol is a no no during induction, but after the 14 days, what can I have that will not totally alter the work that I've done? And lastly, I read something about an egg/meat fast which you do for 3 days to kickstart induction. Im going to come right out and say Im on day 2 of that fast. What makes me question it is no where in the book does Dr. Atkins say you should have to do this. So those are my questions! Im very happy to be here, and whatever responses I get are much appreciated!
