carb up days happen, I feel they are only natural for us, personally I have learned to embrace them, plan on them make it something you chose to make happen, that way your on control of not only that meal or day of carbs, but your mind is happy with your choice because it wasnt something bad,, you didnt fall of any wagon,…

Day 2 of the ATkins fat fast completed, I dropped another 3 pounds, now down 6 pounds in 2 days, feeling better this time after 2 days, I am still feeling well, last time after 4 days i was feeling kinda light headed and spacey, I think mixing up the menu a little is helping with that, and I have my fat fast calories…

a couple of months ago, I had been going strong in Keto for over a month straight, then i feel off the wagon for 4 days, and i chowed on carbs heavy, When I got a handle on myself I weighed I had gained 20 pounds in 5 days!!!, i was shocked, i told myself it had to be allot of water, Then, after one week of being back on…

Starting a 4 day Fat Fast today

yes, the weight lost on the FAT FAST stay off, as long as you break the fat fast with protien, and go back to induction, eat some carbs at the end, and your put on water weight quickly, but the answer is yes they do

Great to have you around, I too have become tired of carbs, when I eat them the weight rapidly returns, after a very long time of going on and off atkins / low carb / keto, i have learned to just do it for my health, my diabeties is in remission when I eat this way also, I have been on a platue of sorts and some of us are…
-
BUT, I must agree with you, I could very well be to a place where counting calories will be come neccasary to move forward, i have often heard of long term atkins users hitting a long term platue and that becomes the place they stopped dieting, i dont want that to happen to me here
-
the Fat Fast is a tool that Atkins had in the rear part of his Early Books,, it was a tool he employed to break stalls/ platues , and it sure does work, so far for the past 7 months of doing atkins I have never had to count a single calorie, just counted grams of carbs and lost 71 pounds so far

Clothes feel smaller, but scale seems to be stuck again,, GRR, out comes the FAT FAST!!,, just has to be done, its been 2 weeks since I have fast fasted

My wife has been asking for POT ROAST lately, I cant wait to make a huge pot of roast, they can have the potatoes and carrots, I will enjoy a huge plate of pot roast with seasonings!! that Elk sounded good!
-
YUP you can turn those KEtO strips into almost BLACK AS NIGHT!!! when doing the fat fast, talk about fat burning ability, that fat fast is an amazing tool , be sure to not do it for more than 3-5 days, and eat plenty of protein when you come out of it
-
answers to questions, 1. do I exercise during the fat fast,,, answer,, No, 2 how long have I been doing atkins, , answer, I looked in my diabeties log book and I have been going at it this time since Feb of this year, so longer than I had thought, i have been staying in induction this whole time, with only a treat meal or…

the Atkins Fat Fast works AWESOME!,, it never fails to result in 6-8 pounds of weight lose for me over a 3-4 day run, everytime I do it, it results in the same weight lose, its a jem in the weight lose pocket for sure
-
you 2 are going to motivate me to get out my butter again, lol, i am going to stand on the scale saturday morning, and with half the month gone by, if its not close to my Sept goal of 300 pounds, I too will be joining you both on the fat fast, ill probably do it for 3 days each of the 2 remaining weeks, and see if I can…
-
sometimes I do use it once a month, it all depends on what the scale is doing, I simply refuse to sit on a platue of stall for more than 2 weeks, too much effort is spent on doing atkins induction to just sit at one weight for any longer, I have places to go and I know the fat fast will make the scale move if needed, but…

Danwold WAY TO GO , i feel just like you , wishing those few pounds away that are keeping me above 300, after just getting back from a weekend away, I dont want to stand on the scale, not that I was horrible, but its just hard to eat your normal things when your away, GRRR, but with plenty of time till the end of the…

its interesting to me how after atkins death , his books were rewritten by his staff, now dont get me wrong the new books are very good compared to other diets ( our low carb dieters opinions) But,,,,, Atkins old books never really talked about "NET" carbs and fiber ( he only talked about phsicun husks to stop plug ups) ,,…

might try the ATkins Fat Fast to break a stall
-
sounds wierd I know, but I keep a small bottle of mustard in my night stand, when leg cramps come on, ( usually from having a carb up meal) a squirt of mustard and the cramps go away in around 20 seconds, dont ask me how, I heard about it in the peoples pharmacy in the news paper years ago, it has saved me many many times
-
Agree with Mememiller, there have been times when I do the Fat Fast 2 days per week in a one month run, takes dedication for sure, but can be done, depends on if you can stomach the fat fast each week for 4 weeks in a row
-
sorry touched a nerve there, we have to stand up for low carb and all it does for the good of people who use it, I miss understood what you were trying to say,, smile

Welcome to the Atkins group, tight knit around here,

Years after his death in 2003, the rumor that Dr. Robert Atkins "died of his own diet" persists. The falsehoods concerning his death are mainly propagated by the vegan group the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and related groups and individuals. However, even the mainstream media is not blameless. In 2000,…

Another thing to remember, if you have never read the Atkins book, i recomend you do so, he says on induction to NOT count calories, you need to allow yourself to EAT on atkins, enjoy the foods that are allowed, a BIG STEAK!!! EGGS!!! and more,, only count your carbs, ,, counting carbs and calories is WORK!! work that…

Look if your in a stall or plateau , do the atkins FAT FAST many of us use the FAT FAST to get the scale moving downward, it works every time, many of us in the KETO group use the fat fast to break stalls, I was on a plateau for 3 weeks in august and used the fat fast to break it, lost 6 pounds in 4 days on it, works…
