Stuck to diet, lost 8 lbs
 

I've been doing Atkins Induction for about a week, and am down 8lbs. Though I know that some of this is water weight, it really provides the motivation I require to stick with it going in to week 2. I know and have planned to cheat for the holidays, but I've made specific cheats that won't set me back very much if I stick to only those infractions.

I also have been trying to get back to the gym regularly, despite finals approaching.

Anywho, just wanted to boast, cuz I feel great and motivated. The quick loss at the beginning of Atkins is what makes me have that sustained drive.

Congratulations! It sounds like you have planned on how to get through the holidays -- smart! You're doing GREAT, so keep up the good work!

That's great - congratulations!

Sounds like you are off to a solid start, with a solid plan. Congratulations and good luck!

You should feel great, your off to an amazing start. Congrats!

Way to go!

Good for you!
