icwiz success story
 

Hello

I started Atkins around February of 2007. I did the induction phase for the entire time. I actually kept the carbs down to 10 grams for the first 2 weeks, and then kept it close to 20 grams the rest of the time.

I used a lot of coconut oil as a calorie booster. That stuff works wonders! I also ate out a lot. It was easier to buy cooked food then try to cook it myself.

This is before:



This is after:



ive actually gained a bit back, so im going to back on induction soon. This time i want to work out to build some muscle :) I also want to get into making my own food. Eating out is expensive.

You did an amazing job, congrats to that!!!

You say you have gained a bit back, that will soon be gone I am sure... you did so well before good on you!

The difference between those two photos is amazing.

:agree: :thup:

congrats on your success! you look marvelous!

Thanks alot :) Im just weary, I had to go 3 months without anything sweet. I cant seem to handle any artificial sweetners. I wish i could find one that i could use.

Also, I need ideas for snacking. Ive been browsing this forum to look for ideas :P

Thanks! :)

Congrats! :)

Wishing you much luck on your journey :thup:

Awesome work!!! I need some insipration & I have to say your pictures did add a lil motivation to my fight.

Amazing....Thanks so much for posting! You have inspired me big time!

I so don't buy this. Even if this is a young guy.

Don't set yourself up for unrealistic expectations. If this is true, it is an EXTREMELY rare situation.

I want to loose 50 pounds in 3 months...
 

I've done Atkins before and was successful, but sticking became troublesome as I got sick of eating meat and eggs... What was your food intake like? Can you give an example of your daily menu please :)

:thup: Great job!!! :)

Wow what a difference...You look fantastic!!!

Well done. You must be thrilled to bits with the 'new you'!

10 g carbs is very little. How did you manage to eat a healthy balanced diet ?

Wow! You look great!!
