Have you recently gone through Atkins Induction? 

If so, then your motivation and excitement level is probably still quite high.

Although most of the weight loss experienced at the beginning of a low-carb diet comes from using up your liver glycogen (the body's carbohydrate stores) and extra water needed to process that glycogen, seeing the numbers easily drop on the scale can encourage you to keep moving forward with the diet’s restrictions and demanding lifestyle changes.

For some individuals, the weight loss experienced during the first few days of Atkins Induction can cause your body to put on the breaks. 

When that happens:

Weight loss can slow down or completely stop as you move past the initial two-week Induction period. 

For newbies and returnees alike, that adaption can feel frustrating. I know. I've been there myself. I only lost 2 pounds the entire first month I spent on the Atkins Diet and only 2 pounds the next month as well.

While you want to lose your body fat as fast as possible, things might not happen as quickly as you expected or hoped. 

If you have the Atkins Induction Blues and are wondering why you aren’t losing weight anymore, take heart. 

You might not be doing anything wrong.
