Re: I don't want to throw in the towel...any boost? | | well i used to have a notorious sweet tooth. go on chockalate and ice cream binges etc most of the time i ate these things i relised i didnt even enjoy them .and i used to get really weak and tired feeling in the afternoons before atkins .now im in my 4th week of extended induction and my biggest problem is trying to eat enough calories so i dont go into starvation mode .i mean i just dont get hunger like i used to b4 atkins i dont get weak in the afternoons anymore and i generally feel great [ stable ].i have the occasional off day where i think damn i gotta eat all this food etc because at my bodyweight of 151 kgs my bmr is about 2800 calories a day .so i dont wanna go much below that number .but i can see this woe is working i feel way better than i used to when i was full of caffeine 'sugar'and carbs.and to be honest eating that way for so many years scares me when i think what it does to your body and also social life etc.so just try to look at the longer term gains you will make on atkins for me im due to get married next may and i wanna look good in a suit again for my fiance think positive and change will happen . muz
