Thanks everyone. I'll try and add in some some snacks. Yes am following both the rules! I'll let you know if it works :))

Hi all New here just been browsing for a couple days!! Been reading some of your diarys and really inspiring. Was on Atkins for a month and lost a stone which was really pleased about, I'm now 14 stone, after becoming sick of eggs and tons of meat I visited the doctor to see about xenical and...

Only lost 1 poxy pound week 2! For week 2 that is bad, annoyed!

I think that's just given my a excuse to get a dominos every 2weeks lol I think it does make sense tho...

Lol oh I think you wait untill the jellys nearly set then whisk in the cream!

Hiya..I'm not really sure I think dukan is low fat low carb maybe? Atkins is low carb and high fat is good! Read around the board and you should get a idea, it's really good and you can have fry ups for breakfast :)

I've been reading the other weight loss boards and I seriously wonder why everyone isn't on the diet!! Struggling with there 800 calories a day. Lol aw isn't funny!! Suppose people do what's best for them. I think Atkins was slammed a bit by the media which probably put people off..I might try...

Phewww thanks lady :)

Sorry wrong thread!!

Guys do you know how many carbs in a mIm? I've heard 12 :o

Yeh I've heard that, not surprised if it's 12 carbs. Surely it cant be?!

I just make jelly and put whipped cream on it lol

Are they 12 carbs for each one?! Hope everyones being good!

Just seen your post!! My boyfriends family live in great barr. Up there loads and always go shopping and clubbing in Sutton. I like it alot!! I'm from Margate lol

Yes :D like said just without the pitta! Had garlic mayonnaise too! May have it like everyday lol joke. Just made a cheesecake also! There's a great recipe thread in the stickies, it's actually even helped me to learn how to cook! Let us know when your first weigh in will be, my 2nd one will be...

That sounds good! Thanks

Gonna be trying yours ladyfelsam as soon as I get some linseed sound luvvvly!!

Thanks every1. Trying your recipe katie!! Tesco didn't have bloody almond flower tho so will have to do tomorrow if I want the base! Just brought some ryvita, 3.9 carbs a slice. Do you think it's ok if I count the carbs?

Hi Lin. I'm on my 8th day..I still haven't purchased the book yet I've basically found all the information I need online and from here, but I think it's best to get the beck but I'm doing ok! Once you know what you are and aren't allowed to eat it's just about standing for ages reading carb...

Thanks for that, gonna have another 2 hour packaging reading shopping session tomorrow! I think a bit of yogurt or cheesecake will make me feel better, the meats all getting too much!! Will look for the recipe for a cheesecake, I suppose buying one and not eating the base isn't a option lol...

This may sound stupid but really need something to eat other than meat or veg!! My stomach cannot handle any more meaaattt lol I just want a yogurt or some cereal:( I heard Greek yougurts ok? Really need to get this linseed stuff, I want a muffin in a cup!

5 pound down, happy with that but want more lol do you tend to get a big loss the second week too? Well done ransch!

Wow that's good. I haven't got a farm foods by me but have been to one and was really good!! I just get 2 for 2pound from tesco lol but might have a look at the frozen ones actually. Got the BBQ ribs tonight. I want a BBQ !!

Mmmm, I told my boyfriend I was having Kebab meat tomorrow and he was like 'thought you was on a diet blah blah' I informed him I'm allowed it and now he thinks I'm just being fat and gone to the extra low of lying about being allowed it lol glad we are allowed garlic Mayo :D

From what I know kebab meat and salad would be much much better than a pizza!! Soak up alcohol good too :D

I'm gonna have tomorrow, are we allowed garlic mayonnaise??

Just brought BBQ ribs and BBQ chicken from tesco the ribs are quite low, chicken 2.7 for 2. Worried there's something in it I can't have? Forgot to check for that sugar zactrose is it? Seems to good to be true cause I will eat these like everyday lol

Just thought I'd let everyone know that in Iceland have brought 18 chicken skewers, half korma half tikka only 0.4g carbs each!! Having them for dinner! Stood in iceland for an hour looking at the back of everything lol

Thanks everyone, will let you all know. Was thinking 'stuff this diet it's crap' but really I know that was just me trying to make excuses to eat!! Will do an announcement on Saturday lol hope all if you are being good and losing them nasty pounds! :D

Yeh I shouldn't have weighed! Thanks made me feel bit better, just hope im not doing something wrong but pretty sure I'm not! Fingers crossed for Saturday ( official weigh in day ) !

Ok so started Saturday at 14'12, couldn't resist weighing myself on Tuesday and was down to 14' 8 happy happy!! Weighed myself now and 14'9!! WTF?? I know it's a good amount of loss in a short time but thought I might be down another pound or 2!! Feel crappy! Gonna weigh again on my weigh in day...

Sent the boyfriend up tesco lol bet he says he can't find none!!

I'll probably regret saying that tomorrow lol god these 4 days I've been on Atkins feel like 4 months!!

I'm willing to accept the bum trouble for sweets :))

Are we allowed them? Anything I should look out for? Anyone reccomend any? Also do people eat scotch eggs ? Lol

Hello, am on day 4. Luckily i don't have scales at home, I go to the chemist to do it lol if I did I know i would be on them every half a hour. Try and restrain though the reward will be bigger the longer you leave it :)

I'm day 4 aswell and feeling rough again. It went away but back with somach ache and headache. This morning when I woke up I thought I was gonna faint. I think I'm smoking alot more which isn't making me feel any better and not drinking enough water. It must be the diet as we are both feeling...

You've made it sound very unappealing now!! Ahhh is hard! Maybe I'll just wait till Christmas lol 7 stone loss?? That's amazing well done. If you've had a little treat period you should deff try and get back on track. Did you reach your goal weight?

Still don't know about the tea and coffee, I think I've seen people say its ok! Deff need to start some exercise, I think the mornings are deff better. Will give it a go!

I know this sounds bad but in my mind I'm telling myself I will have a treat day soon after a couple weeks maybe?? I'm hoping on my weigh in that seeing a loss will make me not want too...just wondered if anyone else does this and if so the affect?!

Thanks for that recipe! Think I'm gonna give it a go. Was looking online for somewhere that sold it, I haven't got a grinder though so would have to get the already grinded one. Any idea if holland and barret do it? Urgh god tried a bit and couldn't stand it!! Actually made me heave a bit lol...

Thanks it very eggy smell and texture at the moment, don't know what else I expected!! May try linseed! Do you know if they sell in supermarkets? Will give this a taste first, was easy and I need easy!!

It's ok worked it out lol soz

Trying to make oopsie rolls lol 6 oz of cream cheese?? Are my scales wrong because put 2 tubs in and still no where near 6 oz???

Will have to restrain from the drunken nights out in Sutton for a while lol :)

Thanks jim. Feel much better today :)

Oo just found a recipe to save you the trouble! Hope you don't have to start again, I have no idea what this dextrose is!

God what's dextrose I haven't been looking for that??!! Also just discovering the oopsie rolls, how do you do yours? I'm gonna check out some recipes :D

Thanks : D

Thanks everyone!! It's amazing how better you feel just from knowing that your doing something about your weight and imagine your body burning the fat away!! Rather than scoffing everyday and just thinking 'I'm fat' ' I need to go on a diet soon'. Hopefully I will get to a place where I don't...

Well im glad if it's a sign I'm in ketosis!! (sort off) lol. I wonder what makes you feel this way, I suppose just all the meat and lack of carbs! Also got the metallic taste so yay least I'm doing it right, really do feel ruff though! Bring on my weigh in on Saturday, seems so farrrr! Thanks

Hi all On day 3 and feel like absolute crap!! Have got a bad stomach ache and feel generally like crap!! Boyfriends a bit worried but I'm assuming this is normal as I've read others side affects?

Thanks everyone. Will definitely have tomorrow :))

Great thanks guys, deff gonna have tomorrow!

Cauli rice...I'll see if I can find a recipe for that as I'm a bit of and dumb cook and have no idea. Thanks everyone! Just eating some jelly with cream on as a treat, watching boyfriend eating popcorn and crisps ahhhh!! Just thinking of Saturday and first weigh in :D

Just wondered what you guys have with curry?? Or just alone?

Im on day 2 and a half, I haven't been counting but am going to try and start..looking for a good app, someone suggested my fitness pal. Seems I'm not eating anything I'm not meant too I wouldn't think I would be exceeding the 20g but I just put 5eggs into this carbcounter app and it said 5g...

Actually have that app on my phone and hadn't even looked at it, got it ages ago.gonna check it out and see what other apps I can find. Cheers

Yeh I tend to not be counting which is quite bad, for example I had bacon an scrambled egg this morning, should I be counting that? Or it's free? I'll prob get to Saturday and have put on weight lol really need to get the book too as I'm just doing it out of research on net :)

It's safe isn't it?? Can I eat it untill I'm sick ? Lol

Sounds nice thanks !!

Thanks I'm a really crap cook so not sure if I'm capable lol but gonna give it a go. Day 2 now feeling different, is strange with no carbs in your belly... Feel like I'm used to it already though!

Well done!! I'm hoping for the same :)

Thanks cokes. I'm gonna stick to it no matter what this week, just wanna get to Saturday and hopefully see a loss and I know that will give me more motivation. I don't know if I'm expecting too much at my next weigh in, I'm hoping maybe 5-6 pounds!! I can see my skinny body running on the beach...

Thanks :D will have to look at the recipe thread to get some meal ideas , god want a sandwich already :o

Hello everyone! Started the Atkins yesterday..weight today is 14st 12 eeek! Will weigh next week and will hopefully have had a loss. Just wondered is we are allowed meat marinated in stuff from the butchers, like chinease chicken, minted lamb ect....also tomatoes?? Thanks Lisa :))
