Question for the vets or experienced,
So let's just talk about how hard this is. Ugh! I recently re-read in my Atkins' book that I am permitted 2 cups of veggie salad or 3 cups of salad alone!
I am dying over here! Ugh! 2 cups is nothing! I have attempted this program several times ( lost count) and wondered why I wasn't loosing like I had been the first or second time around. I get the whole one shot deal with this diet and then your body gets used to it and you don't drop the weight all that fast....
Well I am realizing that when you are eating more carbs than you "think" you are.....also plays a sad factor.
I was eating 4-6 cups of salad plus other green veggies....never once figuring my carbs out. Like I was so sorta expert?

Day 4 with eating the carbs that I suppose in induction and guess what? 3 pounds down......

I guess that this just goes to prove that you REALLY need to be careful and even when you think you know what you are doing you better double check and study the book one more time!!!

All the best to everyone....lesson well learned........

a good reminder, pq, that when the plan isn't working, may be a good idea to make sure we're working the plan...glad to hear you found a way to get things moving again.

i think the dressing on the salad, for me, comes into play more than the lettuce...i have to watch it because i'm tempted to slather on on.

congrats on the pounds down!
