Assuming your weight numbers are in kilograms you are at about 109 pounds, looking to lose 10 pounds.

If you were eating lowcarb 'on and off' recently your body probably has not got the pounds of 'water weight' most dieters lose in the first few days, so your losses might not show for a bit longer.

If you are eating to induction rules wait till you have completed 14 days on induction and see your results before changing too much in your menus.

A 'normal' loss on the 2 weeks is said to be between 5% and 10% of the weight your body needs to lose, so assuming the extra 10 pounds you feel you are carrying are fat, then a loss of between 1/2 pound (225 grams) and 1 pound (450 grams) would be 'normal' for you.

Make sure you are exercising too. When I first went on Atkins I had about 50 lbs to lose and I lost 12 lbs in 2 weeks! I just finished two weeks of re induction, I have only 15 lbs to lose, I lost 4 lbs in 2 weeks.

Had you stopped eating on plan then? There is no point in starting to count your 14 days again unless you have been a while off induction eating.

Just continue to count your days from when you started - you wrote yesterday
Quote:
i've been on induction atkins for almost a week nw
so if yesterday was your 6th day on induction then today is your 7th and tomorrow will be your 8th day.
Continue eating to plan, drink your water and exercise and when you have done 14 days then weigh and measure to see if you have lost any grams or centimetres/millimetres

If we had to restart our 14 days every time we ate one food off-plan before being able to move to OWL then many of us would still be on induction months later
