That's my long range goal. I lost 60 lbs a couple years ago with Adkins but had no plans for when I got off th diet, which of course means, I gained it all back. :lol:


I've already started eating more Organic foods and will stick with that from now on even after Adkins and most Organic foods are very low if not carb free. :getdown:

Did you come to a plateau with Atkins or did you just get bored with it altogether?

Nothing wrong with that! Are you using any of the shakes, etc.?

No, they taste like crap. :dead:

My diet consist of meat and eggs with cheese......I'll eat bread on the weekends and maybe a regular desert.

Have you tried the Atkins brand shakes? I think the chocolate royale flavor is pretty decent. The other brands taste like crud,though.

I can't honestly remember what brand names I've tried but I've tried a couple different ones...:lol:

I like water and diet sodas work for me too so I don't need a shake. :shrug:

Congrats! Are you following the strict guidelines or have you modified them at all?

It is a modified version. If I go over the allowable carbs, I say whatever and start over the next day! :lol:

I've done well with it so far, and I'll stick to it until I hit a plateau. Might be awhile, I am walking 2 miles everyday and I start kick boxing in 2 weeks.

i have a question about Atkins. Even though you are burning fat instead of carbs, where is all that extra artery clogging cholesterol going? Or are you burning that too?

You need to stop believing the HYPE and start researching things yourself. :yay:
