Learned a secret way to Whoosh!
I met a lady on Atkins who said she stalled out and was told by her Doctor the best way to lose faster on Atkins was put NOTHING in her stomach after 6 p.m. except liquids.
So, for the hell of it , I tried it. (I just finished up my second week on induction and only lost 3 pounds in my 2 weeks). So.. on Friday night- I did it. I ate NOTHING after 6 p.m... woke up Saturday morning and had lost 1 pound. Then Saturday night I did it again. And woke up Sunday morning with another pound lost! So, I decided to test it. LAST night, I ate snacks in the evening.. veggies, cheese.. etc. stayed at 20 carb for the day. And I woke up this morning with NO LOSS. I didn't gain, but I didn't lose. So.. tonight I will not eat after 6 p.m. again and see what happens.
I am excited to try it again! It doesn't bother me not to eat at night, so I am hoping this will work for me. I am so desperate to lose the weight, and was becoming frustrated with only a 3 pound lost on induction! But now I have hit the 5 pounds lost mark and I am so happy!
Anyways, I just thought I would share this little secret!
