Yes it can. I'm close to goal and during induction I was losing 1 pound per day. This is good news for you because it means like myself you have a super high metabolism. Betcha didn't know that did you?

It happened to me before. It probably won't keep going that fast. At the beginning you drop a lot of water weight too. I know when I lose the first few pounds I start feeling better. Imagine a 2.2 bucket of watery fat celled yuk that your not carrying any longer.

I've been losing 1/3 to 1/2 pound a day for several weeks now, and I'm a woman in my 50s with what I have always believed to be a sluggish metabolism. Isn't Atkins '72 wonderful?!!

Just stay the course and keep it simple and real, even on those days you wake up and don't see a loss. You'll be amazed with your results!
