Hi Everyone! This is my first day on this site. Another forum I was on closed down so I looked around for a good place to go and found this one. I started Atkins on January 11 and have lost 14 pounds so far. It's less than I hoped, but this is my second time on Atkins (second and last!) so maybe the first time I wasted my "golden shot". Anyway, I slipped up a little yesterday and went to Popeye's for lunch so now I have to get back in ketosis. Hopefully it won't take too long. Glad to see so many others here...gotta go and check out the recipes now!

Thanks for the warm welcome and for this informative LC forum. I'm new to the LC WOL and have already learned so much just by coming here and reading. So far, I've been doing Atkins for 3 1/2 weeks. Lost 5 lbs. within 1st 2 weeks then nothing. I (think) that I'm following "Dr. A's"
instructions pretty strictly but have had pale readings on keto strips the last few days and no color at all today. Going to Fitday.com & post my diet. Any help that you LC "veterans" can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

Hello. I love the idea of the fitday site but I am eating lots of Atkins foods and can't seem to enter them. Any advise? Thanks

You have to enter them as a custom food from the nutritional information on the package.

Hi, I started on Jan 7 and have lost 11 pounds, but
I just stuck there. I was expecting to lose more in that
amount of time. I keep track of my carbs so I know
that I don't eat too much, but I do drink low carb beer.
I do not exercise and thought maybe I should start to
get the losing process going. Is anyone else having
trouble losing?

Hello everyone!!! I just discovered this forum. I'm kinda a newbie seeing as I just started Atkins back in February, but I'm not a newbie to the plan. I've been on and off Atkins for two years and I never really had much luck, because I wasn't doing it whole heartedly. However, this time I am and I've dropped about 7 pounds in two weeks. Which isn't alot, but it's good enough for me. I'm also working out a lot more and I'm probably gaining muscle.

I just wanted to stop in and say "Howdy"

These tips are good for us "oldies" too. Thanks Marlaine.

Thanks for all the information. I will check out those sites. I started Atkins almost two weeks ago. I have my mother and two friends also on the "way of life change" with me so it makes things a little easier. I wanted to read stories of others who have lost so this is great...Thanks again.
