I have only been on the atkins diet one week I have only eaten fish, meat, cheese and eggs.
I bought the tapes and the ketosis strips. I am still testing negative.
I have not lost weight and have increased inches by one.
I am trying very hard, don't have money to buy pills.
I am about 70 pounds over weight and only 5'0"
Thankyou

Where are your veggies? You're supposed to eat 20 grams of veggie carbs for the first two weeks.

You are only supposed to have 3 oz of cheese per day, too. I generally have a cup of salad at lunch, and either two cups of salad, or one cup of salad and one cup of permitted cooked vegetables with dinner. You must use a cup measure for your carbs until you can comforably estimate the quantity to make up a cup. Have faith, have patience... follow it, and it will come. Drink water, too, not diet sodas, for the first two weeks Good luck.
