Wow Tammy that's amazing loss well done. I've bought some zero noodles so waiting on them to be delivered you can add them to your meals to bulk them out and they have hardly any cals in them, I think 4 cals per 200g so s&s allow it . Might be something to think about to try and fill you and...

Perfect. Bulk and freezing is the way to go. I had Strawberry's banana 1 alpine bar and yoghurt for breakfast so fueled up for the day. I really like cucumber and could eat a whole one so maybe chop up a Cucumber to go with my mug shot during the day for lunch? X

Hey osjmum Thanks for the advice. I will make sure that I add extra free foods into my meals. I find it hard with being on the go constantly. I don't really get 10 mins to sit down and prepare a meal during the day. Any tips for someone on the go?? Maybe prepare foods day before might help x

Well I have weight myself today. 1 week and 2 days into induction and I have lost 11lbs :) happy happy happy!!! Keep getting really sore heads. Don't know if it's water intake (drinking loads btw) or the constant change in weather. Living in Scotland you get 4 seasons in one day!! Xxxx

Great stuff. Thank you for sharing. I have loads of mayo so need to cut that out. I always have loads so it's smothered. So a tablespoon it is. Do you know if ginger and lemon tea is ok on Atkins? All this help is made me more motivated really appreciate it. Here's to a new week :thumbup: Xxx

Wow official first weigh in and I have lost 12 pound. I can't believe how easy this has been. I am so motivated and happy with my weight loss. Week 1 done and dusted. Week 2 here I come :D. Xxx

Weigh day for me tomorrow too. Excited!! I've been having a yucky taste in my mouth today. Must be ketosis. Good luck for weigh in xxx

Let us know how you get on Lisa. Good luck you!! Xxx

How you getting on xx

Maybe your just not in the right frame of mind! remember hunni Rome wasn't built in a day every day is a new day. If you have a blip leave it in the past. What's done is done. Carry on and be strong. :)

today's going great I've decided as I've not got loads of time in the morning to change my shake to a bar. I can eat it on my way to work. I'm having a shake at night instead of the bar and I feel more satisfied. Strange that. Day 6 today and feeling amazing. can't believe I'm doing this with...

That's great that you stayed clear of the dreaded bacon butty. Sometime it needs that other person just to remind you to stay strong. Bless your little girl she obv doesn't want to see you upset that you have gave in. Xxx

Long as you don't have sauces and anything else should be ok and not kick you out ketosis. Can use salt and pepper for taste xx

Just little ideas can you have lamb with green veg as a meal instead of a shake? Xx

Defo agree. I've got a calender and do the same. great idea in the 1-14 pound chart. I'm going to give it a try. Its a fab way to motivate yourself!! Marking the day's away and pounds off!!! :):thumbup: xxx

I think if you have a low carb meal it should be ok like a chicken breast and some veg. if you just have anything it will kick you out of ketosis :( It's hard when events come up. You have to be strong or maybe plan ahead. Can you take a bar or a shake with you? It's very tempting when there is...

Remember don't weigh yourself everyday. You will get disheartened if the scales don't move. Sometimes you can be 1 pound heavier one day then the next 2 pound lighter. I would leave it to once a week. Something to look forward to. Seeing the weight fall off once a week. Xx

Your doing really well too Lisa. In a couple of weeks time we will both be doing this like we have do e it for years :thumbup: Xxxx

This is day 5 and doing good. No hiccups. Not feeling hungry so that's a blessing lol. Today I had a banana shake for breakfast. Tomato soup for lunch. Just going to make the curry for tea then have a bar for supper. Xx

Think you are maybe in ketosis if your not feeling hungry. That's good that you have lost another pound. Keep it up. Your doing fab. Xx

How you getting on today Lisa?? Xx

I'm on 4 packs a day also. Really enjoying this diet :) It does get easier as you go along. Xx

Hunca how many packs you on a day? X

Fab I had my micro on low watt setting. Shows how much I used micro. It's all looking tasty now x

I'm on day 4 also and feel great. Give it a couple of days Lisa and you will feel great. I'm just having my tea just now. Cottage pie. It's quiet tasty x

Yey.... That's amazing. See you will feel better now xxx

Hahaha anus that made me chuckle. Glad your feeling better. Can't believe it's Monday already. where did the weekend go. Hope everyone has a good Monday xx

Day 3 done and dusted. B banana shake L mushroom soup ( I'm really loving all the soups so far) D chilli S dark choc truf ( yum yum) Weighed myself today lost 6 pound in 3 days. Bit of a motivator. :thumbup: I will admit now. I'm not drinking water I can't stand it so drinking coke zero instead...

How much have you been drinking? I will prob get shot for saying this but I hardly drink water. I drink about 1.5 litres of coke zero a day. I weighed myself there just now and have lost 6 pound in 3 days. I promised I wouldn't weigh myself until the week but drinking coke zero hasn't done me...

Just think of tomorrow as a new day :o I bought a calender and cross out each day as I complete it it's motivation. Once you see your first weight loss that will motivate you. It's difficult. I've struggled on day 1. I promise it gets better as you go on xx

Are you on 3 or 4 meals a day? Little half of a jaffa. Wee blip but carry on hun. It's in the past now. Xx

Try and think about how good you will feel if you survive day one hun. Your nearly there and its nearly over. I'm here all the way :D K x x

It's definitely hard when you have to cook or there is cooking going on for others. in the house I have a 4 year old and hubby. I'm really fortunate that hubby is really supportive so he cooks for him and the little one. Day one is nearly over for you. Keep strong. I'm here on mobile now so if...

Lisa when I made my meals they wernt really tasty. I asked if the was any way to make them Nd was told to let them sail for 5 mins before cooking. I use boiling water instead of cold water when making meals and makes them so much better. Keep strong. X x

How are you getting on with your first day Lisa? Caramel latte not as good ad Costa but was tasty. Today I've had B banana shake L mushroom soup D chilli Going to have a bar or a shake for supper later. 3 day almost done. Enjoying this very much x

I do the same. I'm a late night chomper that's why I leave my supper so late. Just take every day as it comes. As soon as your body's in full ketosis you won't feel hungry at all. I did Atkins diet in 2010 and couldn't eat much due to being in ketosis. I'm sure this will get easier as we go...

No not everyday. Promised myself once a week. I get really disheartened easily so just giving myself the week before I weigh. How are you getting on? Xx

I try to space foods out. I'm on 4 packs a day. So have a shake for breakfast. A soup for lunch. A hot meal for tea and a shake or a bar for supper. I tend to try and drink plenty. Maybe start the day between 9 - 10am for breakfast. Lunch about 1-2 pm tea about 6ish and supper 9ish. I drink a...

Hey2129 Yey fabb someone who started at the same time. That's not soo good about the headache. Thankfully it's self inflicted tho hehe. Be good to buddy up on this journey. Good luck today x

Hi everyone. This is the first time I've done a VLCD. Have received my starter pack, aiming at 4 meals a day. I'm a bit confused with others writing about protein intake???? On top of my 4 packs a day do I need to have a protein meal? Any advice would be grateful!! Excited and nervous...

Hey I'm here :) 2 weeks in and only 4 pound lost. A bit gutted. Think I need to 're read Atkins books. Obviously doing something wrong. Fingers crossed better loss next week xxx

It's so easy to self indulge and eat a 'cow of cheese' I've done it so many times before. My weakness is my 4 year old - mummy would you like a sweetie as she eats a bag of haribo. I just explain to her that mums on a special diet and isn't allowed sweeties and this seems to have worked. The...

Sure can be tough. Thanks for all the support. This thin is my time :D x

Hi Goldilukes yes I couldn't agree more this site is amazing for help and support. When you do so well then all of a sudden you loose yourself. That's what happened. I'm back in the Atkins frame of mind and all set to succeed :D How are you getting on? You finding it ok? This is my 3rd day of...

It's hard to get your head round everything to start off with but you soon get used to eating Atkins style. The first few days are rough but soon enough it's all worth it when you fit into clothes that were too tight LOL x

First week x

It's getting easier. Will let you know how I get on xxx

Looking forward to tomorrow morning... Weigh in day. B bacon and egg L chicken and bacon salad D chicken legs and baby tomatoes. - wasn't really hungry I'm loving atkins finding myself more organised and clued up about foods. Roll on tomorrow Xxx

It took me 3.5 months but I stayed on induction the whole time. Atkins diet is the best diet.tried loads of others but this one beats them all xx

I only started Atkins last Friday, previously lost 3 stone following Atkins in 2008, I was the same - never hungry, forcing myself to eat. I tend to take baby bels, cheese strings and pepperami's to work to snack on even some cold bacon. In the Atkins book I have it says remember to eat every 6...

Slightly wistfully threw them in the bin and put other yuckky stuff on top so they were gone for good. Genius!!!! Gone for good. I like that. Well done you xxx

Thanks Stef.. you have a great day too xx

I was really tempted but I didn't. Just walked on by. Proud of myself the old me would of eat my body weight in cake. Xx

Good day today. Survived eating a buffet at work hi 5. B omlette with bacon and cheese L pepperami and baby bel D chicken and salad Xxx

Stupid predictor text. Once you have a snack you will feel better in 20 mins x

low carbers can sometimes get a little hypo. this will make the body react like anxiety. Regular snack in the afternoon usually helps with this. I've sometimes feel like that but one a snack has been eaten I'm on within 20 mins. Hope this helps x

Today I was at a big meeting and survived stuffing my face fill of Buffett. Cream cakes, scones, choc cookies, sandwiches, pies, sausage rolls the list went on. For lunch I took a stroke along to the local tesco express and bought a peperami and some baby bels. By the time I got back to venue...

I melt butter In the micro for 20secs then add mixed herbs, garlic or paprika powder into butter, mix it to a paste then paste on wings before cooking. Beats plain chicken anydau Hope this helps x

I have decaf coffee first thing - it's my way of tricking the mind to think it's having real coffee......it works for me :)x

I have to force myself to eat some times as I'm not that hungry. X

Yumm that sounds tastey. Can you eat that on induction? X

Evening. Just sitting down to tea just now. Been a long day.... They joys of working. Another day done and dusted. Still as enthusiastic as the day I started. B egg crepe with bacon avocado and mayo L tuna mayo salad D chicken wings with a crush garlic and butter with salad How's everyone else...

I've stocked up on sf jelly it's great for a sweet fix x

I forgot to say mix it together with your hands so you squeeze the mince together into a ball and flatten it into the baking tray x

I justhad it cold from fridge. I suppose you could reheat it as its only been cooked once xx

Just double cream. Once it's finished you can chop it up into cubes. slices what ever you fancy it's good cubed with salad or sliced with cauliflower mash x

Its really tastey. I used a packet of beef mince 1g black pepper 1 oxo cube 1fl oz heavy cream 2 eggs and 4 chopped up baby tomatoes mixed all together in a bowl. Put it in a oven dish Lined with tin foil and cooked it for 60 mins 160 Celsius. Pull loaf out of dish with tin foil attached drain...

Been a long day. 1st day back at work for 2 weeks. Was in a bit of a rush this morning so had a quick breakfast. B 1 pepperami and 2 baby bells (eat on the way to work ) L left over meatloaf some cucumber sticks and 4 cherry tomatoes D more meatloaf with salad lol - suger free jelly Nd cream...

I had egg crepes for breakfas today and they were delish wrapped with bacon and a wee bit mayo inside x

Thanks busy.. Been a lot easier this time round. Think it's because off all the support and ideas on here xx

Honestly I'm no cook. I just chucked it all in a bowl and mixed together. Chucked it in the oven and hoped for the best.. x

Another day almost gone and still in the game. Had another fabby day Atkins style. B bacon and mayo crepe wraps L tuna salad D meat loaf (home made!! Getting good at this cooking malarkey) and cauliflower mash . Meatloaf made from beef mince, eggs, herbs and cheese and onion. Made enough to do...

I need to get some olives. I'm not keen on black olives but love green ones does it matter which ones? X

Just as well you said that. I had a full one yesterday. Oops.xxx This is an avocado

Thanks for that recipe. I had never tasted an avocado before stef but now addicted. Really tastey. Guacamole is made with advocado - think I've spelt it wrong lol x

It was great. Thinking about adding advocado next time. The recipie is on that link under egg crepes x

Perfect. Thanks x

I love mm - best place ever and so much more useful than diet classes. Lol. I will be sure to call on you all when needing help - which will be sooner than you think :D xx

Loads of variety for breakfast so for people who are not keen on eggs (i love eggs) there is loads of ideas. When do you think I should weigh myself? I've not weighed myself since I started don't want to dissapoint myself by weighing too soon? What do you do? Xx

I was looking online for breakfast idea on induction and came across this - thought it might be useful to newbies like myself... Hope this is in the right bit lol http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthread.php?t=126133

Thank you toall ofyou for being soo supportive x

I have loads of chicken so will have a good look through the stickys. My new years resolution is to be a better cook lol ( I'm was more of a convenient food person - but that was the old me)

Yeah this is the best diet if you wanna call it a diet..... More like a eat the things you love and loose weight diet.;)

Sure do. What about frozen meats are the recomended or have they got too much carbs in them. I bought a bag of frozen chicken breasts too - chicken is my Atkins guilty pleasure could eat it all day every day. Was on special offer at 1.89 for 8 breasts bargin 0.2g carbs x

I got chicken breast, legs and thighs, mince, pork loin and beef steak enought to last me the week.. x

Brilliant!!!! Thanks for the link lol. Cauliflower and mustard sounds amazing. Im definetly going food shopping tomorrow and follow the recipies on the stickys xx

Thank you. these food idea's with cauliflower sound great. I will have a.good.look at some of the recipies here - I'm not sure what recipies to follow as some of them don't say what phase. So any pointers for tastey induction treats would be appreciated. Xx

What is a celeriac? I'm a cooking disaster lol but there is loads of time for improvement xx

Thanks will give that a try. I love chicken and been told advocado is really creamy and tastey. Im loving this new adventure and food tasting x

Lol I'll have a look on line. Thank you anyway x x

Love it thought. Roll on tomorrow. What's the best way to have advocado? Never had one before and I am giving one a try tomorrow x

I know I have really enjoyed today. Didn't even feel like I was on a diet with eggs and bacon for breaky. X

First day has been great. Not had the urge to hit the bread bin or sweetly jar - the sweetly jar was always my down fall. The joys of having children - always sweets about. Looking forward to having new foods tomorrow never tried avocado so going to give it a bash tomorrow - what's he best way...
