9 days...
I've been on Atkins for 3 weeks today and I've lost 11.5 lbs. I had a brief miny vacation from it (for about 3 days), so maybe I could have been lower wieght by now, but I happy with my progress.
After a week in a half of Atkins, you should be able to notice a difference. I telling you a little secret (lol) DRINK LOTS OF H2O. I've heard your body can store up to 9 lbs of excess h20. I drink 100 oz. plus a day. It may seem like a lot, but my body craves it now that I'm LCing. I got a great water bottle and keep it filled at all time
Atleast for me, the first thing to change has been my tummy, it's flatter and at about two and half weeks in, I noticed my love handles shrinking. My hips have also shrunk I think my arms will be the last to slim down, but I think if you're looking for tummy progress you'll do just fine in a week and a half. I know everyone is different, but it's seems like most people lose weight pretty easily (in the beginning).
Make sure you also take some supplements (b/c you're flushing your system out with all that H2O), I also take a diet pill that I think helps with my weight loss.
Good luck
