) get SUPER constipated from psyllium. I was taking it daily for about 5 days last year and I didn't go the entire time! Finally I had to buy a laxative. Flax seed works good for me though. I'm going to try magnesium after reading about it here. |

What is typically used in studies done on the Atkins Diet is 1.2-1.3 g of protein per kg of body weight. For your current weight, that means 110-120 g of protein daily.
If you are hungry, exercise a lot or have a lot of lean body mass, you might need more protein. The highest intake I've seen used is 1.75 g of protein per kg of body weight; it was used by Dr. Phinney in a 1983 study done on lean male subjects. The recommendation by the Atkins Center was that protein should account for 25-30% of your total calories. But the percentages are not carved in stone.

Just posting to keep this thread going. This is day 15 and Ive lost 10 lbs . It is certainly enough to keep me motivated for 2 more weeks. Thats my mantra ...its only two weeks!
I have been up and down a pound for 2 days , but its is generally downward so its ok. Keep posting, I think its very helpful to have real people to go to , not just a book ( or my own crazy ideas! lol) Lizzie |
