newbie, question about induction and snack bars

[mom-to-5]

THANKS TO ALL WHO RESPONDED! i'M ON MY SECOND DAY OF INDUCTION AND HAVE BEEN FEELING VERY SICK. MY ARMS AND LEGS ARE WEAK, MY HANDS TREMBLE, I HAVE A HEADACHE AND I'M IN A VERY BAD MOOD.
I HAVEN'T EATEN THE BAR YET, BUT I DON'T THINK I CAN LAST MUCH LONGER. I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHINK ELSE. I WAS OUT ALL DAY TODAY AND ALL I COULD THINK OF COMING HOME TO THE BAR. I'VE BEEN HOME FOR ABOUT 2 HOURS AND I'M DYING TO EAT IT. I KEEP ON DANCING AROUND THE KITCHEN... LORD HELP ME!
BY THE WAY, THIS MORNING, AFTER ONLY 24 HOURS ON INDUCTION I HAD LOST 2 LBS ALREADY!!!WOW THAT WAS QUICK!!!PROBABLY ALL WATER THOUGH...
ANYWAYS, I'LL WRITE MORE LATER. I'LL TRY MY BEST TO NOT EAT THE BAR.

Welcome. You've been given the best advice already. I'd just like to add that you can do it and we are all here to help you. Atkins really works. Get involved with the board, meet people who are doing it and get excited about the new you that will soon be in control over your food instead of it controlling you! Best wishes!

Thanks to all who responded!
I ATE THE BAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm a failure. i ate one on saturday night and another one yesterday in the afternoon. Still, one a day requires a lot of willpower on my part. what I really wanna do is eat the whole box in one sitting!!!
maybe, I will just have 1 for an afternoon snack each day, until the box is finished, then I won't buy anymore.
But, i'm happy to report I have been consistently losing weight , one pound a day. except this morning when I was the same as yesterday. I believe it's because I havent gone to the bathroom since I started the diet, 4 days ago.
i'll go post this question on the induction board.

Hello. Stop being so hard on yourself. It would help your cravings to just get rid of the things that are causing your temptation.

To weigh yourself everyday will only be discouraging, and then to say you didn't lose a pound because you didn't go to the bathroom is just silly. It took awhile for me to do this when I started back in October, because I was just like you, LOCK YOUR SCALE UP FOR AT LEAST TWO WEEKS.

I am still quite obese, and have alot to lose, but I will tell you, I am happier than I have been in years. My addiction to food is gone and I now eat food to nourish my body, not nourish my cravings and addictions.

You have to want to do this, you have to be the one to make the choices, and ask yourself what the old way of eating is worth? Then ask yourself what the new way of eating will be worth? I will tell you that my new way of eating is worth more to me than any Hershey's Chocolate bar or pack of Oreo's could give me.

Good Luck to you and God Bless
