Atkins Diet - Day 5 Induction - Thoughts and results of the day

Well.. woke up, and the scale hadn't moved an inch.. I really felt disheartened as I know I have been spot on.. so I went back on my menus and I think I may have either gone a little high on the veg or cream. I also think that it may be TOM as I've just stopped breastfeeding and I know she is due plus I think I need to cut out the salt.
So I went and got the ketone stix and low and behold I wasn't in ketosis. BUMMER.. which might explain the non existant weight loss. I decided to be motivated as I had a feeling I was really close, so I went and bought the dirty dancing workout dvd and did 15minutes.. (I looked like a giant prat heee heee

) but YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.. i'm now in ketosios.
So BURN BABY BURN

Day 16 and down 2lbs whooo hooo

Posted January 20th, 2009 at 07:47 AM by Tumtum (Day 5 Induction - Thoughts and results of the day)

after the scale not moving for 6days, I was deeeeelighted to see it had moved. FINALLY.. please let this be a start of something good.
I've also decided to try make myself abit more chilled about it all.. as I think I was really going obsessive and beyond the last two weeks, so my knew theory is to be chilled and relaxed (haven't even bought more ketostix), and stay at 20g for this week and then start moving up... and start looking at this as a way of life, not a diet... if that makes sense......

Day 11 - Found the culprit

Posted January 15th, 2009 at 10:37 AM by Tumtum (Day 5 Induction - Thoughts and results of the day)

Well. woke up and scale is the same, stix are in moderate, and I am sure I am feeling much thinner.
So had to rush to the docs, forgot breakfast and really couldn't even muster the thought of eating.. booked in for some tests to double check my thyroid activity (as my mom has an underactive thyroid and my sister has just been diagnosed with the same thing) and also to get my cholesterol and bloods tested.
Rushed home to a big fry up breakfast to find that my MAYO had hidden starches..
