Sorry to get off subject but are you seriously for the United Arab Emerites or have I got it wrong? I think I kinda spelt it wrong at the very least.

RE your induction journey-it is a tough transition when you first start out. Headaches, upset tummies, dizziness and some other wonderful changes. Your body is in full out revolt and will not go down without a fight. The encouraging thing is that this will pass. Once you start losing the pounds, that feeling becomes addictive and everything seems wonderful. After that, it seems to be a journey of emotional ups and downs. Atkins is a way of life and it has worked wonders for me. I may not have lost all my weight but I feel so much better than I did when I started. I see it as a long term process and had to get used to the idea that it would not be a fast solution. It takes time. I have days when I have been discouraged and it takes extra creativity to keep distracted and not binge/cheat and ruin all my progress. I am committed to the long term results. I want to be healthy and in control of my life. I don't ever want to go back to being the heavy girl and all the self loathing that came with it.
You can do this!! Make yourself important enough to change bad habits! The short term discipline will make for a great long term life and health!

Hi Moretta,
Thanks for the support. I will try to look at withdrawal symptoms as a sign of health! after all, my body is getting rid of so many toxins! I am sure that once those three days are over, I will feel 100% better!
By the way , yes I am from the Emirates.. .
