Well I have a question for all. How many grams of protein are people averaging? I saw some were on the internet that said woman should average 75 daily and men 100 daily on the Atkins. Or is anyone really counting the protein? Some days I try but sometimes I get caught up counting my carbs, to make sure I don't go over, I don't count the protein. I have the DANDR book but I dont recall seeing it anywhere in there. Anyways, sorry if this is a stupid question that I have just overlooked.

Hi:
Day 9 of Induction and so far:
My Protein is averaging 150-180 grams per day on a 2200 calorie dailey intake.

I don't plan it...Just seems to work out that way. (Fitday.com)

My Fat is always around 70% dailey...I make sure it is.

My Carbs 15-20g per day NET (subtract fiber).

Have lost 7 pounds past 8 days...so I guess it is working!!!

I use fitday.com and track everything that goes into my mouth...right down to my vitamen (which I added in via custom settings).

Hope this helps!

Best to all;
Jake

Thanks for the info! Don't that seem like alot of gram. I mean I figured mine as 25 grams of protein per meal. To me this is kind of hard, at least in the morning. I can only handle so many eggs and bacon EVERYDAY. I just ordered too book so maybe thta will help. I ordered "Atkins for Life: The Complete Controlled Carb Program for Permanent Weight Loss and Good Health" and "500 Low-Carb Recipes: 500 Recipes from Snacks to Dessert, That the Whole Family Will Love." So maybe as soon as I get those it will be easier. Thanks again for the quick response.
