Hi, I'm back

[TanJa]

I'm back. I joined last year and was a very frequent viewer but didn't post very often. I lost 18 lbs but recently had my weight starting to creep up again. I never reached my goal so I really want to keep on track this time. I am starting day three of induction. Good luck to everyone else. This diet works for me as no other every has.

Hi and welcome back TanJa–

Don’t compare what you lost or how you did “the last time” your body and lifestyle isn’t the same as last time – follow the plan the way it is written, exercise, drink plenty of pure water (64 ounces minimum daily – nothing added) and you’ll be on your way to loosing before you know it.

At the top of the induction page you’ll find a condensed version of the book - (Atkins Diet Induction FAQs)http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-diet-14-day-induction/77558-atkins-diet-induction-faqs.html. Make a copy of this list (What foods can be eaten on Induction?)http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-low-carb-dieting-faqs/6781-what-foods-can-eaten-induction.html and take it with you when you go to the store. If a food isn’t listed on the acceptable food list don’t eat it. Learn to read the label on all foods you buy - don’t just look at the “carb” number look at the ingredients list of everything and check the ingredients against your list. Just because it says "low carb" doesn't mean you can eat it. Also check for hidden sugars (learn the names used in place of the word “sugar”).


Check the STAC Second Time Around Club - Atkins Diet for additional support. Check the stickies at the top of the induction forum to refresh your memory on the plan. (BEFORE you begin the Atkins Nutritional Approach...)http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-diet-14-day-induction/5781-before-you-begin-atkins-nutritional-approach.html.

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

Welcome back TanJa!

Okay...ending day five and I remember this feeling from the first time I did induction. I think I've got a little bit of the "induction flu". I'm sticking to the induction food list and using fitday. Thanks for everyone's support. I think I'm making a good restart.

Congratulations on getting into and through the induction flu -- you are well on your way!!! Keep up the great work.

Hey! Welcome back! I wish you the best of luck!

And remember the weight won't creep back on if you stick with it.
