Should you count as well as Calories Carbs on Induction? Calories do matter on the Atkins Diet? Perhaps, but more importantly should you Obsess over them like an accoutant with the company’s books? That answer is unequivocally no IMO During Induction, you are Relearning your way of eating and living and are Already Denying yourself former comfort foods. Adding the burden of counting Calories on top of That Seems fraught with prohibitive and back extraction into a Low Cal, Low Fat mindset. During Induction, Should your body be your guide. If you are hungry, eat. Eat something on plan. If That Means 16 oz ribeye or to satiate That hunger, so be it. Your body will start to tell you more and more with stronger messages When you are done. After induction, some people may chose to Evaluate for Themselves Personally if They need to count Calories. For me as I have said elsewhere, Calories mattered only to make sure I was eating enough. Those numbers I did not use to restrict my intake at all. Others may need to use them as a portion control as the appetite suppression with higher carbs or OWL is lessened. So after induction, it is up to you and whatever you need to be successful, but counting Calories on Induction (in order to restrict the amount) Seems to me a recipe for feelings of deprivation and less than optimal results.
