I'm really hoping that's a typo, and 3.5 pounds per week, and not a day.

It is highly likely that the majority of the initial loss is water, sorry
Yes, Dr. Atkins said the first 3 -4 days it's water weight.

If you continue the meat and egg fast for a month or two, then it is more like Atkin's induction, correct? And the loss should be bodyfat


I believe the meat & egg fast is only supposed to be used for 3 - 5 days? Do you mean .. like Induction weight loss? Induction is considered the first 2 weeks of Atkins with 20 grams of carbs daily. Then there's untechnically what comes after.. and where I am, of staying at 'Induction level carbs' with the option to add nuts, avocados and higher glycemic level vegetables, etc.
