It is not uncommon for a person who is going through the Atkins weight loss plan to lose as much as 10 pounds a week. This is a normal amount of weight to lose and will taper off as the diet goes on.
Phase 2: Ongoing Weight Loss (OWL)
This phase is where a person must find out where there specific ?Critical Carbohydrate Level for Losing? stands. This is done by increasing the amount of carbohydrates by 5 grams each week until you find that you aren?t losing as much weight. This phase will last until you have arrived to within 10 lbs. of your weight loss goal.
Phase 3: Pre-maintenance
Once a person has reached this phase, they are basically home free and will begin to see that the Atkins Diet is more of a lifestyle, and not one of those ?Get thin quick? schemes.
