Hi Helen. I'm Debi and I have just received my food pack to start next week too. I've never done a VLCD before and I am both excited and terrified for various reasons: 1. I've done so many diets and even when I have stuck to them, my loss has been so slow, I have given up after a couple of...

I am looking for new ideas and found this thread - thank you - and thats before I even try a MIM! They sound lush and I have to go and buy some ingredients - trouble is the supermarket is shut now until tomorrow so I shall have to just dream about them until then!

Hi everyone I weigh on a Monday but I weighed this morning so I could join this thread. I started induction 12 days ago and have lost 4.5lbs. I was pleased I have lost something but I thought it might be more as I have done it 100%. I have found it OK as I havent had any cravings for sweet...

It will be good to know their reply Stephen.

Oh thanks - it doesnt make that clear in the book! I shall let you know what it tastes like with quorn!

I started induction on Monday using the 'New Atkins New You' book and have only eaten what is on their list so far. But I want to make the Cheseburger Pie that you all rave about tonight - with Quorn mince. I looked at the pack and total carbs in 100g is 4.5 but fibre is 5.5! How can I take...

Goooodeeee - Ive given up chocolate - can't give up the 'kisses' too!

Aaaliiii zumba zumba zumba - are you ex-forces by any chance Jim?

Oh Im happier now - I thought my smelly breath would last for as long as I am eating Atkins! I look forward to it disappearing in a few days then! Thank you for the hope you have given me x

Day 4 and I still havent felt hungry. About 10 mins ago my son came to talk to me and said "Pooo you're breath smells - weird!" I asked him if it was like bad breath and he tells me it is bad but strange. "Like nail varnish?" I ask - "yeah thats it!" Does this mean I am now in this...

This sounds lovely - but I don't eat meat so do you know if I could make this with quorn mince and if so, how many carbs it has? Debi x

Ive seen some of you guys mentioning SF jelly. I have Hartleys sugar free jelly crystals - is this the same thing? And are you allowed in on induction and if so, how many carbs in it? Thanks Debi x

I have now done my first two days on the Atkins and I can't get over how filling it is! Here is what I have eaten - I would welcome feedback if I am eating too much cos it feels like I am! Mon BF: 2-egg omelette with herbs and 30g cheddar plus 70g fried mushrooms L: 120g roast chicken, 140g red...

Thank you for your warm greetings! I've just really enjoyed my first Atkins breakfast - 2-egg omelette with strong cheddar, herbs, mushrooms and a little soy sauce (plus only a tiny sprinkling of guilt! 8-) It was lush and actually tasted great without bread! Sorry - I won't bore you with...

Hi All. I have been yo-yoing for years on SW & WW diets (all high-carb/low-fat) and have had enough. I decided I had to try something radical so bought the 'New Atkins New You' book. I've always believed Atkins to be really unhealthy but so much in the book made sense. I have also had a good...
