Default Re: Dizzy during induction?

If you are doing Atkins, you should not be starving. Eat when you're hungry, stop eating when you're satisfied -- no need to artificially restrict your caloric intake.

If you post your menu, then we can see if anything there that should be changed.

The dizziness could be a symptom of the "Induction flu", but it could just as well be caused by not eating enough.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
