Answers:
It's been awhile since I've done Atkins, but if I remember correctly I didn't see much results that first week. Remember you're body has to go through the adjustment phase. You should start seeing results at the end of week two, just be patient and keep doing what you're doing.

Do make sure that you're not drinking things that you're not suppose to either. Switch to the diet drinks or stick with water or koolaid. You can use splenda as a sweetener.

Good luck.

Btw, my husband and I were both successful on Atkins.

Other Answers:
I think a common problem w/Atkins is people feel they can eat as much as they want - even if it's "On the diet". You still need to cut back on portion size because calories in=calories out.

i did atkins and wound up getting gout, serious pain in the big toe and risk of other problems later, you should do weight watchers, much safer, healthier and more permanent You cannot simply eat meat and protein. That is a common misconception. You need vegetables, and vitamins. Go to atkins.com and check it out.

It might take a little longer for your body to go into "ketosis" than some people..so go to the pharmacy isle of any grocery or drug store and buy a kit that tests your urine for ketosis levels. If you are in ketosis you will start to see the weight drop really soon. Watch your salt/sodium intake because the water you are retaining could offset the actual weight you have dropped. Good luck!

You and me both along with thousands of other people strive to maintain a healthy body.

I've finally found an all natural juice that actually works w/o side effects and all I do is drink 2-3 ounces 2 times a day and it a balanced meal with plenty of excercise (balance) and outdoor activities.

The product is called Via Viente: www.gotvia.com

Check it out and let me know if you want to try it.

you have to eat 6 times a day small amount of low carb items and exercise i lost 45 lbs last year doing this it works but the water and exercise are the biggest factor
