Old Atkins book from 1972? or following the New Atkins lifestyle which kinda is diff. than what the original Atkins is all about.
Did you do Induction Phase? Induction phase is 0 carbs for 2 weeks. It allows all meat/seafood fish and fowl you love to eat…then it is only 1 cup of salad with limited list of veg to use only…or you can substitute that little cup of salad for a pickle. Now that is how Atkins should start
Then you add in 5g of carbs per week.
After Induction you add, say, a 1/2 cup of raspberries. See how you do for a week. If great, feeling fine etc and still losing some lbs then the next week you add in another 5g of carbs. Say, mushrooms with meat kinda thing. See how you do.
You can’t think not losing lbs is a stall, sometimes it takes a week for the body to lose nothing ya know and it is normal to fluctuate but if you overall trend over time adding in a few carbs each week is a downward trend then you are ok…if you hit, say, 20g of carbs and you haven’t lost any lbs then you might have reached your ‘critical carb limit’ but this is ALL explained in the Atkins book.
So the 1972 version of Atkins is out there still and that is the book I started with and I lost lbs very easily. Hope some of this info might help
