I just had to let someone know about my weight loss. I started the induction on Monday with my 16 yr. old daughter. We vowed not to cheat and we haven't. She lost 10 lbs. and I lost 9 lbs. She is so excited. I am so happy for her. Her downfall is McDonald's and she has not fallen this week. I try and keep her motivated and set an example. Do any of you know or have any teenagers that have been on Atkins? Please give me ideas. Thanks, Christina

Congrats to BOTH of you! That is a fantastic weight loss!

I have a son who is 12 years old and is over weight. I talked him into trying this for a week (but started him off with 30- 40 carbs a day). After the first few days he started to like it and realy got into the grove of it! Unfortunatly he went to his dad's for 4 days. He told his dad .. I can't have this... and his dad told him... your with me now.. your not going to be on a diet.. now I can't get him to go back to this WOE. Mind you his dad weighs over 300lbs! So your daughter is lucky to have a mom like you that supportive and wants to help her out! Big clap of hands for you! Just keep incouraging her and setting an exampel and she will probably follow suit!

On and off since 2000

You GO Girl!!!!!! Just remember that your weight loss will slow a bit after induction and dont let that get you down, but, THIS is easy and we all can do it!
