    I just started - Today is day 2.
    I've done Atkins before and lost well on it. I've managed to rope hubby into doing it with me...Tho, he doesn't have much to lose, so is looser with his carbs. (I have quite a bit to lose....I'd love to lose around 75lbs eeek!)

    Eggs and bacon for brekkie
    Cheese and bacon burger bake with Salad for lunch
    Pork belly slices w/garlic courgette for dinner.
    Snacks - Pepperami & 2 babybel.

    Plenty of water.

    Could do with the support here. Good luck with starting!

    I'm about to begin! Support is much appreciated. So far-breakfast is a couple of slices of bacon and two eggs.

    Hi everyone- I just completed 2 weeks of induction and lost 8.6 lbs. I have now started phase two and added nc carbs to 25. This week I am adding some almonds for my snack. I changed my macros in MFP to 10%C/30%P/60%F just to try to monitor more closely. I am only 5' 2" and have my calories set for 1250 (May have to tweak cal and macros). Looking to encourage and support each other in this way of eating (Atkins) Please feel free to send a friend request.

    Hi everyone! I'm trying to start atkins as well. I did pretty good for the first couple days but splurged today & my net carbs will be about 65 :-\ could be worse though!

    Feel free to add me!
