Thank you Shell!  I plan on stayin on Induction for longer than 2 weeks because that is when you lose more weight and these past 2 weeks have been fine.  I wonder how long I can go without eating any of the major carbs like bread, rice or pasta?  Any bets? lol


Be careful, 'nicole'.  The induction period is what it is, and is the length it is, for a reason.  it isn't healthy long term.

Not saying extending it is gonna be bad for you... just saying be careful.

I know Andrew... but I have made several atkins buddies and they have stayed on Induction for quite some time.  I've been doing my homeowrk on this and I am about to do a lot more once my books come in.

I just tried some of the atkins ice cream (my dad got it to try to be healthy). It's alright...

I'm disturbed by the fact that someone (I forgot who) said you're not supposed to eat fruit while on the Atkins diet.

Um o_O  Not eat fruit?  Fruits and vegetables are the most healthy foods for you....

So yeah...o_O
I think you underestimate the level of my sneakiness

Eh.... fruit is healthy because of all the good stuff that comes with the sugars (vitamins, iron, etc).  But fruit is still a LOT of sugar.  That being said, if you are gonna eat sugar, it's the best kind.

People used to say grains and breads were really healthy too.... but they are actually nothing but pure sugar.  Yes, fat free and all that.  But still pure sugars.

People used to say fat was bad for you, but then we discovered there are like 5 different kinds of fats and some are good and some aren't.

Vegetables, however, are still good for you :)

Now i have had more i think i like them more. They tasted weird at first because i was like "my teeeeeeeeeeeeeth"- my dad was sure they'd explode in the fridge. But yes, a healthy alternative to me eating bowls and bowls of Lemon Curd ice cream *dies*.

lmao @ Rosie!


Do you get that kinda thing too tia? I'm wondering if its a kinda thing that comes with M.E. I was addicted to toasted feta cheese sandwiches when i was ill.


I think it's the kind of thing that comes with being British and weird ;)


But I'm British and weird and it doesn't happen to me 8O

I just have issues with a diet telling me not to eat fruit.  Good thing I'm not buying into the Atkins.
