I lost eleven pounds on induction the first two weeks. I also lost 8 1/2 inches in those two weeks. I will be on Atkins three months tomorrow (Happy Anniversary to me!!) I have now lost 21.5 pounds AND 21.5 inches in this time. I seem to go into a stall the week before TOM and the week after and then I will lose a couple pounds a week. That is 7.17 pounds per month. I feel sooooo great! My skin feels good and I can't wait to get on the scale every morning to see if I have lost. I know you aren't suppose to weigh every day but I weigh about three times a day. Always have. Always will. I still follow the basic induction rules with the exception of I allow myself nuts and Atkins ice cream.
