Making good progress, I think. Pleased that I managed to stick to the diet (mostly!) while camping in a field in the Suffolk countryside for Latitude festival. The only area where I'm letting itself down is alcohol. I've been allowing myself more beer than I should, though I only drink by half pints now.

Weighed myself first thing this morning, before breakfast, as I've always intended. (My first weigh in was done this way too.)
It's nice to see that I am actually making some progress! I was worried that I wasn't losing weight, although I have been losing inches.
I'm pleased that the energy crashes have gone. I feel 'normal' again now - it doesn't matter how long I go between meals, I still have energy to get through. Though I am trying my best to stick to Atkins no. 1 rule: three square meals per day, no more than 6 hours apart.
I've been trying to find high-protein snacks that are lower in fat. I'm concerned that my fat in-take has been too high, even for Atkins, mainly from a reliance on cheese to make meals more interesting! I've not been keeping tabs on my eating as strictly as I have in the past - not every meal has made it into Caloria Counter in the last week, for example. I've also allowed myself a little indulgence at weekends.
Still, I'm pleased to have lost some actual weight as well as inches. I'm feeling more positive about this now. I think I may reward myself this evening by baking a low-carb cheese cake! Yum!

A disappointing weigh-in. I've been doing Atkins induction for 14 days now, and it's been an interesting experience. The hardest thing has been legitimising the diet to other people. There's still considerable stigma surrounding the word 'Atkins', which just can't be avoided.
The first week wasn't as well followed as it could have been. I went out drinking a few times, for example. I stuck to low-carb drinks, but the alcohol probably didn't help things! The second week has been a lot better, although weekends have proved tricky so far, as I've been away from home.
However, I got some 'ketostix', and my body is producing a reasonable volume of ketones - so I am burning fat! The first week was full of headaches (caffeine withdrawal I think), light headedness and fatigue, but the second week felt like normal again. I've had two or three occasions of carb-cravings, and so far I've only succumbed to half a pint of ale yesterday (it was a weekend!).
Chest: Just under 40"

Wow, so I've lost actual inches! Sod the weight - I don't care at the moment, I've actually lost inches! To be honest, the weight could be because of time of day, I've recently had breakfast, etc.
Now I'm very happy =)
