Over the past year or so, my weight has gradually crept up from my lowest maintenance weight of 117 pounds to 130 pounds at the end of December 2007. Dr. Atkins said over and over in his books that you should never allow your weight to go more than five pounds over your lowest weight for maintaining. For some stupid reason, by indulging in things that I shouldn't have eaten, I allowed myself to gain about 13 pounds without doing anything to prevent it and everything to make the situation worse. Beginning this month, I'm back on Induction until I get down to my goal weight. I'm doing my own customized, tweaked version of Induction by eating as few carbs as possible and very high fat. I'm not worrying too much about the amount of protein or fat, just the carbs. I am also trying to cut way back on the amount of vegetables that I eat for a while. I think that they have been causing me a lot of digestion problems and I want to determine if that is the case. Any recipes that you see mentioned in my menus that don't have links are not posted on my site.
