Ok, thanks for opening your diary, here are my suggestions, and this is just my observation. I am NOT an expert, nor do I claim to be, but this is what I think needs to be changed in the way you are eating to improve your weight loss experience. #1 drink MORE water, at minimum 8 glasses of 8 oz per day, but strive for 10…

Sorry add "more" salt :blushing:

Yes, this is a side effect. They say to offset it, to add mire salt to your foods. That has helped me.

To open your diary, go to settings at the top of the page, then click on Diary Settings. There you can change it to public. I too have had a slow start, only 7 lbs down in 3 weeks, but I am keeping with it.... I keep looking for the Ketone strips, but can't seem to find them in the store?

I love the new Atkins frozen meals that you can find at Wal-Mart. I had the chili today (4 Net Carbs) and it was awesome! I eat a lot of meats, chicken, steak, pepperoni, eggs, salad, bacon, cheese, asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower. Favorite Snacks: Lupini Beans (love the salt), roasted pumpkin seeds, Banana Peppers and…

Ok - so as promised, I would update you upon weigh in this morning.... I am please to report I lose 5lbs on my first week. I feel full, and am happy with my results. I am motivated to keep going!

Was watching the morning show and Drew Carey said he lost all his weight doing Atkins and has kept it off for 3 years. Sharon Osborn also did Atkins.

I will tell you tomorrow... However I wonder if it is possible that I am not getting enough carbs??? I am eating a lot of protein and my carbs are below 20 each day.... I have not weighed myself yet so I don't know what is going on, all I do know is that I am not hungry or craving sweets, so I think I am on the right track.

I'm doing the old Atkins plan. Tonight I had steak and lobster with steamed broccoli, it was delicious and only 4 carbs.....LOVE IT!!

Can you share this recipe?

Do you have to be friends to read someone's diary? I am new to MFP.... Well, using it anyway....

It's been almost a month since you started.... How have you done?

I'm starting Monday too, I've been told to avoid the Adkins bars during phase I, I will be eating eggs, proteins, cheeses, and lots of green veggies and cauliflower. Keep in mind onions are HIGH in carbs, I learned this the last time I did Adkins.... Opps. Who would have thought. Good luck.
-
Newbie myself, and starting low carb on Monday, nervous though because I don't care for eggs.... Any suggestions for breakfast foods, following the Adkins or South Beach plans (both seems identical in phase I)?
