Forget the Atkins diet.

I have been dieting this summer with great success and I eat all foods but limit by calorie intake to under 1500 per day.

I have lost 30 pounds so far--30 more to go to get to my "ideal" weight.

I drink diet soda--but rarely have any hunger pangs at all.

Since I live out in the country I do get a lot of exercise on the weekends. That is when the weight falls off easily.

Update (for those who care)--44 pounds off--16 to go. :-)
