Atkins Questions: How much weight will I lose on Induction?

Sunday, April 18th, 2010

or its sister question, “Can I lose XX amount of pounds by this date?” In this video, I respond to the other most popular question by new people starting the Atkins Diet. I am always concerned when I see these types of questions in that the poster perhaps is looking for a quick answer to their weightloss problem. In my opinion that quick answers are often wrong or temporary answers at best. Sure, it’s natural to have goals and use them to motivate you. It’s also natural to be curious to see how much you will lose on Induction (typically 5-10% of your total weightloss goal). Where it goes astray is that it focuses on the weight loss as being the most important part, and does not acknowledge the equally important question of what do I have to learn during Induction. In the end, I hope everyone achieves their goal as quickly as they desire it if possible, but if not, I hope they realize how far they have come from where they were and are motivated by that rather than be negative about missing the date.

My Atkins Diet Story

aka how one Iowa guy lost over 200 pounds and gained his life back. I can not say enough about how positively the Atkins Diet and low carb in general has been for me. I went from a 429 pound guy who could barely make it up a flight steps to a guy running half marathons and rejoining the National Guard. My health is fantastic, and my blood work (cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, heart) could not be better.

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

** Graphic Display of loose skin around my stomach near the end — Viewers may want to ensure a bag is available ** Today’s episode I deal with the one of the most common questions people ask me after hearing of my 200 pound weight loss. That is, “do you have much problems with loose skin?” In the end, I have to admit that I do have a bit of loose skin (I affectionately & sometime not so affectionately my “SharPei”) around my torso and legs, but it could be much worse.
