Unhappy Day 4 and I feel like @#*&

I'm guessing it's just my body adjusting to burning fat ... but man I could use some sugar!
Determined not to let this break me ... I took the dog for a brisk ( well, brisk for me any how) walk around the block. So now I'm pumped and feel like crap at the same time ... kinda weird .

Hi Barb! Welcome to ADBB!

You know you'll feel better in a day or two. This is just the last bump before you start "melting" fat efficiently.

Good job for exercising -- happier dog, slimmer you.

Happy Atkinsing!

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!"

Thanks ... that's what I keep telling myself ... it will get better ... this too shall pass.
Oh, and yes ... the dog was quite happy ... loves to walk. If the weather's nice on Tuesday (my day off) I think I'll take him for a hike.

Agreed. That's when the "Atkins Flu" hits. My body felt weird, had minor headaches, all the signs that my body was adjusting. It will pass and you will feel great! I fell waayyy better during the day and slaeep better at night. It truly is a night and day difference!

Also, like you I had sugar cravings and a dependence on soda. I bought some Pepsi ONE. It has Splenda which is induction friendly and my craving disappears when I have one with dinner.

Thanks! I have been losing on regular measures since the beginning of the year but hit a wall about a month ago. Looked into Atkins and just started this week. Very impressed thus far though! This way of life definitely got a bad rap but you cannot deny the results!

Pepsi ONE works great for me. Just watch out on the Diet Root Beer, I noticed some are sweetened with Aspartame which is a no-no on Atkins. Splenda is key here.

I'm having trouble finding Pepsi One. All I see is Zero ... it has the dreaded Aspartame in it. I'll check on the diet root beer. I'm very into reading lables these days. Can't say I like all the non food suff I'm reading.

I think it was Pepsi ONE anyway. I will check when I get home to make sure that's correct. It's very good to read the food labels. I feel weird when I go shopping and I'm reading about everything I buy. People probably think I'm crazy!
