I'm really getting frustrated...with myself! I'm doing my best to lose weight, but it's just so slow going. I'm hoping things look better next week. I did measure today and I still measure the same as two weeks ago so I'm hoping the slight gain this week is water.
Have a great weekend all! |
Finally the scale moved in the right direction this week! I'm down to 133.4 lbs. after being up to 136.2 last week! I hope this losing trend continues!
Becca - How are you doing this week? Hope you get a loss too! :D jonjaxmom - Are you kicking those 4 pounds to the curb or what! ;) norihakata - Welcome! :) |

Atkins Induction, now fat fast
About myself:
29yo; 5'4" female; weight at beginning 59.5kg goal weight 50-52 kg Atkins Induction started on 28 Oct 2013 Gained from 50kg in 10 months time due to binge eating & hormone issues. New to Atkins, started induction on 28 Oct 2013, before that i've been on low calorie low carb for about 5 weeks (average 1300 cal, no bread/pasta/sugar at all, around 40-50g net carb per day, cardio exercise 5 days a week; 1 to 1.5 hour each, with a bit of weight training 1-2 times a week) lost around 1.5kg in 5 weeks. Started Atkins as recommended by doctor due to family history of diabetes and thyroid problems. As of today (15 Nov), not losing much lbs maybe only 2 pounds (my jeans are fitting a little bit better), following induction strictly having all the 12-15 net carb from veggie daily, 1800cal avg daily, 1.5-2L water, still having the 'Induction Flu' tired during the day. The last 8 days been increasing my daily cal to around 2000-2200 cal see if I can see the drop of lbs and hoping to break that Induction Flu, but still the same nothing changed in fact I feel bloated with puffy eyes still tired. Ketostix shows low to moderate ketones. Been having ankle n back pain for about 2 weeks so i've eliminated all cheese and start taking fish oil/ krill oil luckily now the pain is almost gone. Today (15 Nov) start the fat fast, hoping to break through the Induction Flu n the bloating/ puff eyes. Any recommendation to get pass that Induction Flu im really tired/ sleepy all day.. I think sodium isn't my problem because I've been eating smoked salmon almost everyday Thanks n good luck to all on your weight loss war!! |
Welcome Jen- I know lots ppl with luck with Atkins diet...but drink plenty of water daily...helps so much :)
147.6 today I'll take it :D |
I was posting in the motivational thread but no one is using it lately. I hope you don't mind me posting here. This week I am back on track and losing again.
Becca and Debbie, I hope to soon be where you are. |
Hi Libby :). Glad to have you posting here...this thread is rather quiet as well, so the more the merrier! I'm having a tough week motivation-wise. I'm sincerely struggling to get on track after a few stray days. Glad to have another check in buddy ;) I see you're a wee one Libby...my sister is 4'11" as well. I'm the tallest female in my family at 5'2" :D. We may be wee but we be mighty eh!!?!
|
My weight seems to be stuck at 172. I hope to lose a pound this week. I squeezed into size 12 pants yesterday. Yay.
We be small but mighty. |
Hi Becca and Libby! :)
Well as predicted, I didn't lose anything this week, but I did maintain my weight from last week. Seems as though 133 is my new sticking point. Trying hard to not let this slow down get me down. I did start a new exercise challenge this week. It's 30 days and I'm on day 3. It's pretty intense so hopefully this pushes me past this little rut and I finally get out of the 130's! Hope you're both doing well! |
The motivation thread is active again so I am on both. I am inspired by you
and just knowing that I can achieve success too. |
Welcome Libby.... once you get going and find whats work for you...you will be going strong.... it took me awhile to get to that point...so don't give up.
I'm hanging steady this week.... but next week..oh my... HOLIDAYS :p |
Libby! You've already lost 21 lbs! I would say that youre already achieving success! 'Keep doing what you're doing girl!! You got this!
Next week, I'm going to join you on the motivational thread. :) Becca, if you're looking for more motivation and accountability, you should post over there too! |
Good news. I am down to 171 this morning. YAY
|
Ultimately the number I'm going for is 120 so I have 18 to lose but that's close enough. :) I'd at least like to be in the 120's by 3/10/2014, it's my and my boyfriend's anniversary.
|
Dollfaise, all the best to you in achieving your weight loss goal.
|
