Hi everyone,

I have been on induction for about 4 days. Yesterday when i checked my
ketones with a ketostix it was medium pink/purple. I was surprised but
very excited to see my efforts paying off. Today, I ate primarily the
same foods but tonight the ketostix was only vaguely pinkish. I was
somewhat disappointed because I kinda depend on the ketostix to be
more indicator that I am on track and for sure losing weight.

Does anyone else have these types of fluctuations?

Deb

I am so terribly frustrated.  I've been on induction for 1.5 weeks and feel like
I've not lost an inch or a lb.  I've not cheated and have been only consuming
MAYBE 10 carbs on some days.  And, I've been walking a mile every other
day......TooFatTooFurious

Thanks for the post.  Here's another question.  Have you heard of the book
"Atkins Essentials: A 2-week Induction Plan "?

Currently, my weight has been stalling, so I thought I would re-read some of the
books.  Since I've been on Atkins, I thought I could eat unlimited amounts of
meat.  However, the book stated, "eat 6 ounces of meat per meal".

Do you weigh  the meats you eat at breakfast, lunch and dinner?  If so, does it
affect your weight?

I cooked salmon patties this weekend and used pork rinds.  They turned out more
like a frittata because I put too 3 eggs in it.  I got a little carried away
with the eggs.  However, I didn't find that the pork rinds were too bad.  I'm
gonna try again this weekend...minus the eggs of course.

I've seen recipes where people smush them down, put butter in them and make a
Pizza crust.  I've used them to dip chicken, tuna salad etc..up with and If you
look hard enough they come in Barbeque flavor and are better than a chip!  No
carbs..

Hello Everyone,

Yesterday, on the Atkins bulletin board, I noticed several recipes for
seafood which calls for "crushed" pork rinds for frying tuna or salmon.

Has anyone tried cooking this way?  If so, I'm curious about the results
(taste and quality)


Thanks,

Eunice

Hi Eunice! I have made salmon patties and crab cakes with pork rinds. Just toss
the rinds into a food processor and zap um till they are fairly fine. mix them
in with salmon, egg, seasonings and good to go.  They tasted great (mmmmm
crabcakes). And the texture was fine on them as well. Im big on how stuff feels
in my mouth and I love good heavy crabcakes (not the kind with all the
breadcrumbs on the outside so thats all ya taste) and these were perfect.

Thanks so much Eunice.  It helps to know others are out there trying to do this
too.  It really does.  Hadn't thought of the herbal tea, the walking I've been
trying to do, gonna try again tonight with my dog.

   Thanks Again

Last week, I re-read "Atkins Essentials: A Two-Week Start To Induction".  It
gave me some insight as to what I need to do :

1.  For energy, drink herbal tea w/Splenda (2 carbs)
2.  For energy, do an aerobic activity for 1 hour each day (I walk on the
treadmill)

I hope this helps.  This week, I am going to give it my all.  Hopefully, next
Monday (weigh-in day), I'll experience a loss!!

   Hi Guys,

   Hope everyone is well.  I need anyone that's willing to, to just post
   for me some of what you do to get back to basics, when you've been off
   track.  I'm having such a hard, hard time, getting back where I should
   be.  Does anyone have any ideas about getting through the feeling
   really tired, headaches, sluggishness for the first few days of
   induction.  Something other than running off and eating something I
   shouldn't.  Any ideas would be most appreciated.

Hello Everyone,

Recently, I added more fat to my eating plan.  Does anyone know the daily
recommended amount of fat for the Atkins plan?
