Day one of Induction! Circumstances over the weekend kept us from planning the way we wanted to but determined to start anyhow. I discovered that I love the Atkins French Vanilla shake... so filling and only 1 net carb. This will be a go to for me when I'm in a pinch.
Wish us luck!

First journal entry... I have started warming up to Atkins as next week my husband and I will begin Induction. My thoughts are that we needed a week to prepare and wean ourselves off of some of our worst food habits. This is what this week has looked like for us:
I have done well for the last four days, sticking strictly to the allowed foods list with only a couple of exceptions. I have had to allow myself a tablespoon of peanut butter on just a couple of occasions to ward off cravings and hold me off until the next meal. We also thought we would have a milk shake last night from Sonic as sort of a farewell to a treat that we love. Well after 4 days of no carbs or sugar, I couldn't even finish half of a small shake. It was just too rich. My husband finished his but felt terrible afterward. Guess our sweet tooth is leaving us already.
We are learning what to eat when we have to eat out. A local Japanese restaurant was great with just meat and sauteed vegetables, hold the rice. DH thought he could get grilled chicken at one drive through place but they didn't carry it -- lesson learned to be better prepared. I'm learning what salads to order from where and a delicious shrimp salad salad has been lunch for me for the last couple of day (only 4 net carbs!). This morning I had a low carb, americano latte with sugar free vanilla and heavy cream from Starbucks that was as good as any alternative.
I'm still learning tips and tricks thanks to the Atkins site and all of the various forums but I think this may be our secret to success. I have lost 3 pounds in 4 days and I can't wait to see the loss after we complete Induction. The best news is that I have not had a migraine (so far) all week and I'm used to combating one at least every couple of days.
