I am totally confused. I am eating less than 20 net carbs a day, and have been for about 9 days now. I bought Ketostix to make sure I'm in Ketosis. I am...as the strips turn purple. Yet...I'm not losing weight. I'm not gaining, but not losing. Anybody who's had experience with Atkins want to lend me some advice?

I have to agree with Kimmer even though she isn't even a licensed dooctor or anything.
Are you measuring everything you eat? You may be consuming more carbs than you think. I suggest using fitday.com. You enter everything you eat in there and it keeps tracks of carbs, fat, cals etc...
You are prob loosing weight but it hasn't shown up on the scale yet. Do your clothes feel different?
I also recomend going to lowcarbfriends.com. It is a GREAT site for low carb support! there are thousands of people on there with advice, support and great recipes!
Don't listen to these people that say Atkins is a "hoax". It is a way of life, not a diet. You cant loose weight by low carbing then go back to eating hundreds or thousands of carbs each day and think you are going to keep it off.
So may think that you eat no carbs at all. You are eating healthy carbs. You do eat fruits and whole grains, despite what people think.
What does everyone think that people ate before processed foods came along????????? Meats, veggies, grains and fruits!!!
KH, you need to learn facts before posting stuff like that. Where exactly did you read proof that this has happened? Thousands of people have lowered their blood pressure, cholesterol and have gone off of meds for diabeties after following a low carb way of life for a while.

There are three main ways to lose weight quickly.
1) Use only water as liquid and eliminate all other liquid drinks from your diet. You must drink as much water as possible every day. You must drink about half of your weight. If you have weight of 200 pounds then you must drink about 100 oz of water.
2) The interval between the eating is very important. If you eat once, then you must eat next after 4 hours. You must take breakfast regularly. In the night eat your food three hours before going to bed.
3) Walking is very good. You must walk as much as you can. Walk everywhere you can. Use of elevators and escalators must be reduced and instead of these you must climb stairs more often.
These are some of the fastest ways to lose weight. By just following the simple steps, you can lose your weight very quickly. You must consult your doctor if want to change your diet or exercise routine.

No secret.
For weight loss exercise such as swimming, running, cycling and even walking can help but dieting can often help a lot more than exercise.
A very good and healthy weight loss diet is the DASH diet that can also help to reduce high cholesterol and high BP.
The DASH diet includes a lot of fruit and vegetables combined with whole grains and cereals plus low fat dairy products such as low fat cheese, milk and yogurt as well as lean meats.
Good serials are Weetbix, oatmeal, oatbran, wheat bran and wheat germ.

That induction phase has got to be followed to the letter to get your body to burn your stored fat.Make sure you read the food your allowed and don't fudge on anything.I did it two years ago and lost 22 lbs in two months.Most of that came off my belly.I was up to a 34 pants size and now I'm at a 32.Two years later I have more energy than I had ten years ago.I don't eat many carbs,especially the bad kind,cookies ,cake ,candy etc.Good luck to you I hope it works out for you and you get to where you want to be.
