UmmmI feel great??

[Jezebel]

So Iam on day three. I am eating around ten carbs a day... not intentionally,I just love leafy greens so that's my carbs... nothing else..yesterday I drank more than six and a half litres of water( I didn't make myself... I was thirsty.. very thirsty) I don't have much fat to lose... I have been reading protein power, but folowing the induction rules on The Atkins website. I have been weight lifting and walking and aqua aerobic(ing). BUT I have NEVER felt foggy headed or fatigued :exclm: :rolleyes: ( apart from normal post exercise fatigue) and I have sweet breath...Am I going to take longer to get into Ketosis because I don't have that much to lose?
Prior to going v. low carb I didn't eat bread or other refined grains and I had also stopped eating grains altogether for the most part.... Will I see results? :confused:

Well done!!
I am on day 4-but an not new to LC eating-I did Atkins for about 18 months(why i ever stopped is beyond me....)
I did a sort of induction a couple of weeks ago but started 'seriously' on Monday.I too had cut out all the main carbs-bread,rice,potato and pasta over the last few weeks and I suppose your results may not be as dramatic as if you had a lot to lose but to put you in the picture:
when I did Atkins last time-after initially losing about a stone, I then went 'hard core'-about 10g a day and I dropped another half stone in 2 weeks so I suppose eating only 10g will really throw your body in to Ketosis-then you can increase them because for me it kick-started my weight loss and I went back up to about 25/30 g a day and lost another 8lbs in about a month.Why dont you get some Ketostix to monitor your progress?

You must be constantly drinking.....I do about 2 litres which is something I never really paid much attention to last time but I feel alot less bloated which is great.
I am also going to go back to the gym this week although again last time I didnt go very much after years of low fat and killing mysef at the gym.All I know is that Atkins really works and youdont need to kill yourself eating rabbit food!!
Anyway,let me know how the rest of your week goes.
Bye!

Anyway,its breakfast time for me-bacon and eggs!!!
