    Can you elaborate a bit more on what a fat fast entails. I've heard of the egg fast diet, where you eat nothing but eggs, mayo and butter for 5 days.

    A fat fast according to a atkins site is only to be done when one has impaired metabolism or in a stall of many weeks. You will regains 2 to 4 of lost lbs.

    it is done 3 to 5 days. Around 1000 cals

    you can have: 1 oz macadamia nuts or nut butter

    2 oz cream cheese or brie
    1 oz tuna or chicken with 2 tsp mayo
    served in one half avacado
    2 deviled egg w 2 rsp mayo 2 oz sour cream and 2 tbsp red or black caviar
    21/2 oz whipped heavy cream topped with 0 carb syrup
    2 oz pate
    2 egg yolks (hard boilef)1 tsp mayo
    2 oz sour cream with 1/2 cup cucumber
    coffee w 21/2 tbsp coconut oil
    4 slices bacon
    2 scrambled eggs 2 strip bacon
    half a serv of sugar free jello w half cup whipped cream

    You will not regain 2-4 of lost lbs on 1000 calories per day. That's literally mathematically and scientifically impossible. You might retain water, but I would expect that more if you included carbs.

    I don't know about losing or gaining weight, but that meal plan sounds like a recipe for a serious case of the trots.

    Wait a minute, this was a 2 year old thread? Is someone going around resurrecting old Atkins fat fast threads?

    It sounds easier to do than a water only fast.

    After you resume eating normally with carb you will regain a couple lbs. Wgat I meant to add bc you are only meant to do this for max 5 days. Generally 3. Then you add in more calories and carbs the following week. Its also said to do the atkins induction after this.
