Default Re: Jenny M Introduction

welcome always nice to have new people

remmber to learn as much as you can about the Atkins diet all to often people try it with out knowing much about it and then feel tired and crappy and then think the diet is bad xD


it takes your bodys metabolism a while to switch from a glucose burning metabolism to a natural fat burning metabolism so thats why theres the induction flu people call it at the start of the diet so it can take 14 days to get over it but other ppl are faster and take only like 7 days but some people are slow and take 3 weeks

heres some tips to help speed up the metabolism change so you start feeling great

eat around 65-75% fat 20-30% protein 5% carbs (20 net carbs)

eating high fat low carb helps switch the body to a fat burning metabolism

also remmber to drink extra extra water when starting the diet and loseing weight
