I have been on Atkins for four months. I lost 16 lbs the first 6 weeks and have lost absolutely zilch since then! I am still on the induction phase. The only thing variation is that I do eat some macadamia nuts and have an occasional snack bar. My daily carb count rarely exceeds 12 - 14, yet I do not go into ketosis. I'm really discouraged, yet I feel good, but I have a really special occasion August 1 (my 50th wedding celebration) and I want to be in a size 10 by then! Should I stay on Atkins or what? Any suggestions would really be appreciated.
