I started Atkins 2 weeks ago and it has been going well (lost 7 pounds so far)...except when Happy Hour comes around on Fridays and I just can't choose seltzer water over a rum and diet coke!! Does anyone else have this problem with drinking (socially) or any other Atkins "no no" that you are having a hard time resisting???

Well I started atkins 2 weeks ago and its still about the same for me maybe a few lbs. But it goes up and down everyday. Its begining to get upseting. I know I just need to get rid of the scale. But I drank a little on it as well. Ok I admit it I got drunk twice, and I seemed to loose more the next day. Maybe because the alcohol absorbed all the water, who knows. Alot of hard alcohol has no carbs at all so I guess as long as you watch what you drink it with it couldnt hurt everyonce in awhile. Think of it as your treat to unwind.

Yeah, I try to at least stick with Gin, Vodka, Tequila or Rum....it is just sooooo hard to completely resist!! I've managed to lose almost 10 pounds in three weeks, so I guess I'm doing something right....I just feel so guilty on the weekends for indulging when I've been so good all week! I'm sorry you haven't lost as much as you want - do you also measure your chest/waist/hips/thighs?? This helps me when the scale isn't as low as I wanted it to be - I definitely see the inches coming off. Plus, I only weigh myself twice a week because I know it goes up and down a little each day...keep it up!!
