I have been doing ATKINS for 7 days now. I stay under 20 carbs pretty much everyday. I have done the tredmill 5 of the 7 days, walked a very brisk mile (sweating profusely) which is the most intense exercise I have ever done.
My body says I am in ketosis (I think) the strips read 80 and I do them after dinner before I exercise.
ANd I have lost 2 pounds. I know maybe I should be thrilled to pieces because I have not been able to drop a pound in years, but.. geeze! I feel like I should have lost ten or at least 5.
By the way I am thrilled that I feel so much better and impressed as **** with what I have been doing on the treadmill.
