I'm officially down 23.2 pounds and feeling great.  However, I've hit a two month plateau so I've decided to go back to the first phase of the Atkins Diet which is Induction.  I still have 40+ pounds to lose so I'm hoping this will end the plateau and I can start losing again.

I'll be eating 1500 to 1800 calories a day and I won't exceed 20g of Net Carbs.  Net carbs are calculated by subtracting the fiber from the carbohydrates.

At each meal I'll eat 4 to 6 oz of protein.   Of the 20 grams of carbs, I'll eat 12 to 15 grams in the form of foundation vegetables.  That's equivalent to about 6 cups of salad fixin's and 2 cups of cooked veggies.

Stay tuned for more details!
