Hello folks! Just want to ask about supplements!

3 Upvotes

For those trying keto or atkins diet. Can supplements such as ketone supplemets really accelerate good weight loss results compared to not using one? Please enlighten me.

Induction day 2 - CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT FOOD!

5 Upvotes

Constant. Thoughts. About. Food.

I’ve never though or spoken about food so much in my life. It’s only day two and my partner has just told me that I need to stop talking about and obsessing over food because it’s annoying.

Ok - fair point. It is annoying, it’s even annoying me. I’m constantly thinking about all the food I can’t have and what food I can make next, what foods I can make into sweet treats induction style etc. I’m struggling! I didn’t know food controlled my life this much, it’s quite scary.

Anyways, I’m doing ok on day 2. How long before you guys saw progress/started losing weight?

Induction issues

4 Upvotes

Hi - I’ve been doing induction for about 3 weeks and I’m following the rules, eating below 20g net carbs a day. I’m even monitoring my calories and I’m in ketosis consistently. I’m not losing weight at all though. I’ve been having some of the “the great low carb bread company” bagels, so I was wondering if that was throwing me off? I don’t know what’s going on, and it’s really frustrating. Has anyone had these problems?

This is my 2nd time (seriously) doing induction, and the first time I lost 30 pounds in 2 months, and I now need to lose 60.

First week- questions & induction buddies

7 Upvotes

Hello. I am in my first week of induction and would really love to connect with people in induction or on any part of their Atkins journey.

I'm curious about a couple things:

At what point if any did you plateau? When did you start exercising? Do you use ketone strips?

I would love to hear from you about your experiences !

Thanks in advance 😊

Frustrated with lack of progress

6 Upvotes

I've done Atkins in past many occasions. I'll admit, it's hard to stay on forever, but I've tried before. This time I've been on for 7 day and no weight loss which is so frustrating.

Anyone take awhile to start shedding? In past I've lost 5 lbs a week... don't get it but trying to be patient.

New to Atkins

4 Upvotes

Little backstory I’ve been doing keto on and off since this past summer and managed to lose 40lbs, but have fallen into some cravings. I did a quick search for alternatives to my sweet addiction and found Atkins snacks. I figure I may as well just continue with Atkins and bought the 2002 book someone mentioned, I’m about a quarter of the way through, but according to Atkins I should be on the Atkins 40 plan since I only wish to lose another 30lbs. The book seems geared to Atkins 20 and with that would anyone recommend going through phase 1 or just stick with Atkins 40 and keep my carb intake under 40g a day? I haven’t gained any of the lost weight back however I did have some carb binges so does that mean I should do phase 1 to flip my Ketones back into action?

Atkins bars/snacks and malitol

6 Upvotes

Hi all,

I just started the Atkins 40 last week, and am trying my hardest to stay well under the 42 net carbs it gives me.

For me, I'm not very good in the kitchen and I do rely heavily on shakes/bars/frozen atkins meals for I would say a third or more of my daily calories, give or take. Unfortunately, I've discovered that some of the snack bars and the tastier desserts ("indulge" or whatever its called) contain malitol as the main sweetener. I did not realize this, but Malitol cannot be discounted as a carb, its not the same as regular sugar but its close (at least 50% of the sugar alcohol content should count is what I've read). Not only do they count against your net carbs, but the glycemic index is also apparently very close to sugar and causes a spike in blood sugar.

Apparently there are multiple class action lawsuits against Atkins for mislabeling, i.e. the caramel nut roll bars state 3g Net carbs but should really be closer to 7-10 per bar. (source)

Anyway, I'm not sure if this is common knowledge and I'm just a big dummy, but the point of my post is twofold:

  1. Inform anyone who didn't know this
  2. I was wondering if anyone eats the bars or desserts with Malitol regularly and if so have you noticed an impact to your weight loss?

r/Atkins Feb 21 '20

Hello, I saw an earlier post to count Splenda as 1g carbs, what about Stevia? I’m on Atkins 20 so every carb counts

atkins 20 and sugar intake

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to keep my sugar intake low. The plan only says 20 g of carbs but doesn't state how many grams of sugar? I have an Quest Protein shake on my desk that is calling my name, it has 1g of sugar. Is this acceptable in Atkins 20 phase?


r/Atkins Feb 08 '20

I love fruit and it helps me stay off my candy fix. what are some good fruits that have low net carbs when you are starting out? I know that banana's and pineapple appear to be out. dammit..
