After I started Atkins induction, three days later, its been two weeks to the day now, my wife has been on the diet too. She has a much more physically demanding job that I do and is on her feet walking around all day long.

Her situation is a little different. She's 44 and 5' 2" and started at just 132 pounds but she does have a bit of a belly fat and some fat in her arms she wants to get rid of. She's not obese like me.

Her keytone test strips are not dark like mine, her's just shows a bare tinge of pink.

The one positive thing is that before when she tried to lose weight she'd do it by trying to starve herself, it didn't work very well, and she was irritable. Now she is eating healthy portions and is not going hungry, but in two weeks she has lost just two pounds, maybe. Water weight can fluctuate that much so she's not really sure if she's lost any weight at all.

Any ideas?
