Re: pleas ehelop.. hard time goign form low carb atkins to ww

Since it was working and you weren't hungry while doing low carb, why not go back to it?

If you stick with WW, eat more veggies and higher fiber foods so you feel more satisfied.

it was getting $$. i would buy teh atkins breakfasta nd snack bars i thought ww woudl be chepaer and bit healthier but i am SOOO hungry. i may do teh core plan

Re: please help.. hard time going from low carb atkins to ww

The price of regular lower carb food is not as expensive of prepackaged atkins brand foods. Anything fresh is going to be healthier then prepackaged/processed foods but overall they tend to be more costly.

I think the core plan is pretty similar to maintenance stages of atkins or south beach.

Talk to you WW leader about being hungry though - they should be able to give you some tips.

thanks actually juist following the plan didnt join. But i had been a memeber a few years back. i think yo uare right if i do coreit willbe similar to a low carb diet whichi am more used to. I just got sick of atkins with no fruits . but fruits are on the core plan and so are veggies so i think after this week on flex plan i am going ot core starting monday. thanks.

you can eat fruits on Atkins

If you are not you are not following it correctly

I eat berries and melon all the time

and the prepackaged Atkins foods are full of crap...I only use them for emergencies

No on induction, you don't eat fruits. But if you only have 5 pounds to go, you should be way past that.

i know my probemis i keep starting and topping so iwent back to induction a bunch of times.
