starting out

[Jman888]

Ok Im finnally trying this diet. i didnt know what to have for breakfast so im just having 2 hotdogs with some condement (And no bread)
And i have to be very strict for a while because i need to lose nearly 100lbs in 4 months before school restarts (To be able to fit better clothes ect.) also i want to afterwards start a big weight training program (Starting it now acctuallly.) so i can have more muscle to burn fat and wont have to be as strict long term. I also plan on staying on induction a little bit extra.

Hey Jman, welcome. Im just starting out myself. What condements? Be careful of ketchup, there's always added sugar or even worse, high fructose corn syurp. Same with some hot dogs, you never know what a company is going to use for filler. Mustard is perfectly safe as long as its not honey mustard, and relish im not so sure about... dill is probabally allright but sweet relish is right out. Good luck with your very ambitious goal... I have to lose the same amount, and I'm also going back to the gym (starting today after work actually) so maybe we can both hit our goal... I don't know if I can do it in four months though.

I found a relish at Kroger that has NO sugar in it and no carbs.

Hi Jman

Its great that you've picked Atkins as your diet, it works very well. Well it did for me last year, I lost 3 stone in 4 months (42lbs?!). I did this on extending Induction and going to the gym 5 nights a week and being very strict with alcohol!



I wish you the best of luck in obtaining your goal.
