How much weight can I lose in a week on the Atkins diet?

Question

I'm about 5'4 and 116 pounds. I want to be around 104. Will the Atkins diet work?

Answer 1

u should just eat healthy and exercise, the atkins diet isnt good for anyone

Answer 2

On atkins you could probably lose the 12 pounds in 3 weeks to a month. It really does work well, but,,,,,,,,,, when you get off track it is really hard to get back on, and the weight piles on super fast. It actually is a great start, but when you start adding your whites back in be sure to step up your exercise or you'll be right back where you started. Realistically, at your height, i would say you should gain about 10 pounds.

Answer 3

Atkins is not a diet. It is a way of life. Since you have very little to loose, you won't loose much the first week.

Answer 4

my method can really help you reach your optimal weight but it will take more time than 1 week... it will take like 3-4 months to reduce around 30 pounds..... more than what you want

Actually change your eating habits... dont count calories for every thing you eat.... just look at the quantity of food on your plate.....

Just have breakfast daily.... eat heavy lunch and have light dinner (prefer fruits at dinner)... the point is that you should be feeling hungry when you go to sleep.... this is difficult but you will get used to it in a few days time.... By heavy lunch i means that if you want three burgers restrict your self to only two....

so summarizing every thing
1. you should never eat at ur full capacity
2. you should be feeling little hungry when you sleep...

Answer 5

when i was on atkins i didnt lose any weight the first week. but the second week my weight dropped about 8 lbs.
