Today is my first day in Atkins Ongoing Weight Maintenance! I stayed on Induction for three weeks. I finally have a little "2" by my name! All of you that were strongly urging me to proceed to OWL, you win! Your arguments were very persuasive, and I bow to your experience!
Here is an average of my daily food intake for this past week:
1860 Calories
142.4g Fat (68.9%)
111.1g Protein
33.7g Carbs
13.7g Fiber
20g net carbs, of which 15g came from veggies
Today, I am increasing my veggie net carbs from 15 to 20, for a total of 25 net carbs. In the past, I would not plan ahead and end up with too many at dinner, or lunch, or whatever. So I am going to plan on getting roughly 5 net carbs of veggies at breakfast, 7.5 at lunch and 7.5 at dinner.
Here are the results of my Induction:
Beginning weight - 150
Ending weight - 149
Goal weight - 125
Goal date - September 6, 2009
I've also been keeping track of my measurement of fitday. I measure every Sunday.
Neck 13.75 - 0.00 = 13.75
Bicep 11.75 - 0.25 = 11.50
Forearm 9.00 - 0.00 = 9.00
Chest 38.25 - 0.25 = 38.00
Waist 31.50 - 0.25 = 31.25
Hips 42.00 - 1 = 41.00
Thigh 24.50 - 0.25 = 24.25
Calf 14.50 - 0.25 = 14.25
Total inches lost - 2.25
Slow and steady! I'll take it!
I am taking my supplements, drinking 75 oz. or more of water each day, and walking at a free, indoor track. I am up to walking 1.33 miles at 3.8 mph, so that's 21 minutes of very brisk walking. My plan is to add a minute each day, until I get it up higher.
