Third time Newbie but Oldie

[todd4005]

I think its my 3rd time attempting Adkins. I recently went to doctor and found out i have high blood pressure and high chlorestrial. So that was a wake up call for me. What can i do? what can motivate me to try Adkins again? Guess i need to read the book again cause i've lost touch with how to do induction and how it goes. I have lost 60 lbs on Atkins before. Need all the help and encouragement I can get

Thanks,

Richard

Welcome back, Richard!

Yes, read the book again. How far into Induction are you? How are things going?

HI and welcome back:

Before you start:
*take your measurements and get on the scale so you have accurate numbers to start with - don't weigh again until the end of your 2 week induction.
*Eat a variety of meats, cheeses and vegetables. Also make sure you get your fats, carbs and protein in daily – www.fitday.com will help you keep track of this.
*Drink 64 ounces of pure water -nothing added daily (Legal water is considered Filtered water, Mineral water, Spring water and Tap water).
*Take your supplements and start an exercise routine today.

Check the STAC Second Time Around Club - Atkins Diet for additional support. We also have challenges for members to join, some are exercise related and some aren’t. Also start a journal and post your thoughts along the way.

The Atkins shakes and bars are not legal on induction – there are non-induction ingredients in them and they are not listed on the acceptable food list. If a food isn’t listed on the acceptable food list it doesn’t belong in your mouth – no exceptions!

The recipe sites are a helpful meal planning tool – just make sure you use Induction Recipes to begin with.
