Atkins Low Carbohydrate Diet - Weeks 4 and 5
Well, I didn't get round to posting last week on my return from Holland as I had a lot to do and think about. The week I was away was really a period of stand-still so far as weight loss is concerned, but in the circumstances I'm happy enough with that. I did stick pretty closely to the 'Induction'-style diet, although I suspect the portion sizes may have been a little bigger than recommended. The big departure was, however, drinking wine - not in huge quantities, but certainly more than just one 100ml glass a day! Over weeks 4 and 5, however, I lost a further 3kg as at Sunday evening last (the day I record my measurements), so my weight then was 85.5kg. I'm pleased to say I lost a further 1.1 inches on the waist (now 38.7 inches) and a very good 0.8 inches on the hips (now 45.7 inches). I also feel very well, better than for quite a few years, and my appetite now seems to be under pretty good control, provided I continue to stick to the rules specified by Atkins. As I am experiencing no hunger at all, this shouldn't in most circumstances be too difficult.
