Be honest with yourself, and build a list of satisfying low-carb indulgences you can relax and enjoy.

Also, I know this sounds counter-intuitive, but I've read that it isn't advisable to work out so hard when you first start Atkins/keto. It hampers your body's ability to get into a fat-burning state.

I wish you success!
