Hi Amanda..today is my fourth day on atkins, and I have to say..I'm glad Ive stuck with it. I had horrible headaches on the 2nd and 3rd day. I'm not positive, but I'm guessing they were related to the diet. I feel great today though! I'm glad I hung in there...and believe me, if I can get through it, I know you can too! Hang in there..we're going to be super models before you know it! 

You can do it Amanda, I know how you feel. This week I gained 3 lbs in 2 days, this morning I was down 2 but still, I am up one pound since Monday!! I promise not to give up if you don't!! We all have to stick together and get each other over these hurdles!! Hang in there girl!! 

Stick with it girlie!!! It is going to happen. I haven't weighed in yet. I am going to only weigh myself once a week at the chemist (drug store if you're american, i think?). Because i know how quick i am to give up if i think it's not working. If i haven't lost any by the end of this first week, then i'll cut down on the butter, cream, cheese and nuts. I'm just so glad not to be eating junk for a while. I think i was addicted to it! Anyway, i just wanted to send you some encouragement, cause i think we all keep each other motivated. There are thin girls inside us trying to get out! :) 

Hi Amanda, I think you are doing really well, however 3 meals and 3 snacks keep the fat away, in other words you have to eat to keep you metabolism firing. I have lost 4lbs this week in total I am pleased about this, however I was naughty and weighed myself before the end of the week and put on weight I really do believe its fluid... so I am not going to punish myself anymore and sick to the weekly weigh in.... Good Luck
