Default Atkins Induction Day 51

Skelly Congrats on the loss!!

I had a good day out in the sun building an enclosed trailer for my motorcycle. A little too much sun as the back of my neck is peeling.

Breakfast
Home Made - Extra Large Hard Boiled Egg, 2 egg
Kraft - Mayo, 2 Tbsp

Lunch
Usda - Pork, Loin, Whole, Roasted, 5.5 oz

Dinner
Jennie O - Sweet Italian Turkey Sausage (Lean), 4 link

Total: 1,367 Calories, 0g Carbs, 92G Fat, 124g Protein

Goal: 2,908 Calories, 48g Carbs, 194g Fat, 243g Protein


The reason my goal is so high today is that I recorded 4 hours of general carpentry in MFP and it automatically adjusts the goal. I do not eat back my increases from exercise.

Thks for sharing! I've been eating celery with palmetto cheese with jalapeņos - so good!! And it's only 1 carb. It's pimento cheese w soul made in Pawley's Island and tastes homemade.

What are you eating daily? So proud of you and your success!!
Thanks bigdog:
I usually have a mocha latte w/real coffee and 3 slices of crispy bacon on my way to work
At home in the mornings while getting ready I have my donut house decaf kuerig cup w/HWC
Mid morning I have 4 celery sticks with whipped cream cheese
Lunch: small side salad w/ranch dressing and grilled chicken or I just get a low carb burger with bacon/cheese/mayo no bun wrapped in lettuce
dinner is whatever meat I fix with a vegetable
Then around 8:30 I fix my decaf coffee again w/HWC and have my atkins peanut butter cluster bar

Congratulations on your losses! I don't cheat anymore on weekends, I'm geared to getting 5 lbs under my goal then I will have that cushion to explore

Day 5 and still doing good. Ketones at 30-40. Each day I am finding the diet easier to do as my body continues to adjust. Fit in to some pants this morning that did not fit a couple of months a go, so I must be slimming down (not weighing myself any longer in life).

Does anyone have a good egg scramble induction recipe? I like to make a big batch of it and eat it for my breakfast throughout the week. Also was hoping for an induction-friendly sir-fry recipe.

For the ones that use Myfitness.pal

I have had some problems changing goals.. For instance I wanted to lower my calories, as I can not meet them, and I can put the numbers in, but when I go to save, it is gray.

This is second time I have contacted customer service and while I am waiting for an answer, they are telling me that Myfitness.pal is available in the Premium, which is not free, however, the free is still available.

Just thought I would let you know.

Yep they are trying to get people to pay. Not me no need to pay. How low are you wanting to go? I don't think they will let you go under 1200.
But I will let you change your macros, I went 5% carbs, 30% protein and 65% fat

RPM I am able to change mine in the free edition. I changed the calories and saved. The screen showed them as unchanged however when I exited the program and re started MFP the new readings for calories that I had entered were displayed.

Substitute Jalapeno peppers for the green peppers and this is what I do also. I like green peppers but I like the kick of the Jalapeno pepper better,

Another 2 pound loss today and I just lost 2 pounds yesterday. YAY!!

Did I mention I love Atkins 20 Induction

I want to go to 1200. I am at 1300 now, but can never get there. I usually come in around 1100 .

I agree, no need to pay..

If you set your goal to lose 2 lbs and sedentary it will go to 1200 calories

Day 6 and all is good. Had an extreme craving for a sweet/dessert last night and fought hard to fight it. Finally gave it some thought and ended up having a slice of approximately 2.5 oz of cream cheese with a packet of Splenda poured on top. Tasted surprisingly like cheesecake and this completely took care of the craving.

I met some friends at Ruby Tuesday's.. It is easy to eat out as long as one has the mental status to say no.. I did not drink alcohol, did not have dessert, so that is a plus.

I ordered salmon grilled well with nothing on it and a side salad , minus the croutons and onions.. I had my own dressing. I know salmon may have been marinaded, but I added extra to myfitness to compensate for that.

Worse part was I have had a craving for dessert lately, and everyone at table had one of those decadent desserts, but I let it go , so feel better today for it.

Tomorrow I weigh in, so will be back then .

Myfitnessplan has corrected itself to 1200 calories after I contacted company, so that is done, and thank you anyone who helped me with this.

Day 7 and I have decided I will weigh myself today. Had a strange thing happen last night. Had my first panic attack in several years. Did some research online and it appears people with a history of anxiety commonly re-awaken panic attacks when going low-carb due to the decreased serotonin in the brain. This can be helped by upping your B6 and magnesium intake. I am going to look for a vitamin which is high in both of these.
