Any Atkins Induction!

[Chrislukey]

Holy crap! I just put all my info for the day into fitday and it says 2188 calories! Only13 carbs though. The first time I did Atkins I never even thought about calories but I thought maybe that's why I lost so slowly so tomorrow I will try to eat more veggies and less fat. So hungry today don't know why That glass of red wine sounds so yummy! I will resist though....Maybe

Vixxs--When we moved we got a big deli tray of meats and cheeses and a vegetable tray and some romaine lettuce leaves for sandwich wraps.We bought bread for those who were helping. You could also maybe get one of those rotisserie chickens from the store for dinner. Hope those suggestions are helpful. Moving is so stressful...Good luck!

Ladies have a good evening and a great weekend it is supposed to be 60 and sunny here tomorrow I am so excited. It has been cold and gloomy way too long.

Good evening everyone.
Not sure how to go about this, but I wanted everyone on this thread to know about the shiritaki pizza crust that was posted by CarolynF on the thread called "Shiritaki pizza crust" I finally got a chance this evening to try this recipe and it is fantastic. Much lower carb count than the crusts made with the cauliflower, zucchini, spinach, etc. I did respond back to that thread saying how much I loved the recipe. I used 1 package of the noodles with the 1 egg, herbs, and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella. It really turned out great. I made it really thin, but still could hold it in my hands (when it cooled a little) I didn't know how to bring it to current postings. I quess called" bumping." Thought some of you might also be interested in this crust.

Hi Judy! Thanks for the heads up on that! I think I did read Carolyns thread on that, but I couldn't quite picture how that would be made. I'll take another look at that. If it's lower than the cauli and broccoli, then I'll take it!!!

Thanks again Judy!

Hello Chris!

I never counted calories, as long as I ate how much I was supposed to eat and that at least 15 to 20 percent of carbs were from veggies. But this is for DANDR. I don't know about A72, but I know your supposed to get some veggies in there.

The platter is a good idea!! I never thought about that!

Have a great weekend too! If you get a chance, pop in tomorrow!!!

Hi Christina! I cannot believe that your head is still hurting and you still managed to get some exercise on the treadmill! What a trooper you are!!!

I hope you start feeling better soon! It's been too long for you to be in pain like that.

I have a can of crab meat, I oughta eat it soon. Sounds good! For lunch I had a loose meat sandwich for lunch. I had that leftover ground beef and made a sandwich with the rev roll. I wish I would have remembered to add protein poweder to my eggs, they are so flimsy!

Happy Saturday!

I started induction last Saturday, so my one week loss is officially 4 pounds! I will take it!

Gotta run, there is always so much to accomplish on the weekends

Great job Jaimie!

J.A., that shiritake pizza crust sounds really interesting. I'll have to look up the thread. Thanks for sharing.

Diana~I made some RRs with protein powder last week and liked them. They are much more sturdy.

Christina~sorry you're still suffering from that nasty headache. I read about your docs visit; not very nice after all you've accomplished.

Chris~how long have you been on Induction? If you are just starting, I wouldn't worry about your calories for the first few weeks. Just concentrate on your carbs, and the rest will fall into place. Losing slowly is alright; you may be losing inches faster than pounds, which is very common with low carb.

Ladies, I just can't do Induction because of some physical problems that I'm having, so I'll have to bow out for now. Much luck to all of you with your weight loss.

[Chrislukey]

Hi all hope you are all having a great weekend.
Christina-it is great that you still exercised even through a headache.I know you will see results soon.
Jaimie-Good for you on the 4lb loss. I started induction last Sunday so I will check tomorrow keep your fingers crossed for me.
Diana- yeah I don't think I am going to fret about the calories anymore I'll just eat until I am full. (on plan)

[Chrislukey]

I sure hope not.

I'm still here at my yard sale, trying to sell what I have left over. The weather is just beautiful here. We've got a breeze and I couldn't ask for a more perfect day! The Lord has really blessed us!!!

Well, I have to go, but I'll be back here later!!

Take care and I love you Ladies!!!!

[seb]

Diana~Wish we were having your weather. It's chilly, breezy and going to start raining. I want the sun to finally come out. Hope you made lots of $$$$.

[Determinedtolose]

Hi Ladies!

Yard sale is officially closed!! whew!!
Oh we cleared about $140-something. Not too bad for what we had.

Our first victim came and said, "how much for this?", "I'll take!", How much for this and this?", I'll take it!"
He was like that we our stuff, it was funny!

My sister sold a beautiful Scandinavian desk from the 50's or 60's to that guy for only $40. He knew he got a steal!!

My eating was good, not great, but good!

B- 2 lc cheesecake w/crust muffin, 1 rev rolls 2 fried eggs 3 slices nitrate free bacon.
L- hamburger pattie wrapped in lettuce with tomato and onion, w/ mayo.
S- lemon cheesecake slice
Water, about 3 cups of coffee

I'm pooped! Been up since 3am and now I'm spent!!!

I'll pop in later to see how you all are doing!!

[seb]

Sounds like you need some rest Diana. Take it easy this evening.

hi! I have been stalking this forum for about two months and am finally armed with enough information from this site and the book that I am ready to kick some carb booty!! The support and information that I have seen on this site is so encouraging. I have decided that the 4 letter "D" word (diet) will not pass my lips this time. I am embarking on a life and health changing journey, not a quick fix! I am 40 years old and have aprox 50 lbs to loose and have been on strict induction for 6 days and I feel amazing and have lost 6 lbs.. Is that possible??? I feel ten years younger and as my fiance says "a new strut in my step" lol. I think this site is a Blessing, a place to hold ourselves accountable and to give support...everyone needs a cheering section. Just wanted to say hello and thank you!

[Chrislukey]

Happy Sunday ladies! This is the end of my first week on induction. I weighed myself this morning and I lost 3 pounds. I was a pound less yesterday but I know the scale will fluctuate plus TOM is coming this week. So overall, I am happy. I did stay on plan all week with only one day with a slip. I went out with a friend and had some drinks. Diet coke and rum..so at least they had no carbs. So hopefully I can stick with it this week. I want to lose 10 lbs. by Summer and maybe another 10 by Christmas. I just really want my summer clothes to fit better. So now I am at 138. (My stats were wrong before I actually started at 141 last Sunday) I don't want to change my stats yet, want to make sure this loss lasts.



Diana - congrats on the sale! I love garage sales you get rid of a bunch of stuff and make some cash too. Plus it is fun meeting all the people. I am hoping to have one in May our subdivision ususally has one big one.


Christina- Yeah for you! I knew you were due for a loss you've been working so hard at it. Hey, we are having ribs tonight too. have to cook on the grill it is going to be nice out.

[Chrislukey]

Backatitagain- I agree this place has the best info and support. Congrtas on the 6 pound loss. WooHoo! six pounds in six days good for you!

[Determinedtolose]

Hi Chris! Good for you on the 3 lbs! That's so great! I think that is a good amount of lbs a week, I mean in the end it all adds up.
Keep doing whatever your're doing and you will see you goal met!

I would like to get into onederland, like really soon! I'm almost there but I keep sabatoging myself! I don't know why I do that, but I do!

So starting Monday, I'm getting with it, I need to, I must!!! I'm stuck at 205, but I am determined to get out of that and get in the 100's soon!!!

You're doing fantastic, keep it up!!!

Have a great day too!!!

[mac24312]
