Not everything works for everyone, and this is by far no exception, but without making up your mind, and really trying this or something like this.. time is truly ticking away on your quality of life... Why not join me on this journey.. but hold on this ride has some bumps and turns..

The only part of this wonderful ending, that is truly sad, unfortunately, Dr Atkins died before these results were published. NOW, WHEN IS DINNER?

If you have a locarb ping list--please let all locarb freepers know that there is a very good new line of cookies that are carb-controlled!!

SnackWells sugar-free cookies are not carb-free, you have to keep the portions rather small (read the nutrition label, my own maintenance will allow me a three-cookie serving).

The shortbread is delicious. Nice to have with hot tea.

Anyone know anything about the claims that aspartame releases methonol in the body and that the sweet taste triggers insulin in anticipation of food?....When the food is not provided, the body reacts with hunger prompting more food consumption?

Mainly bumping for the recipes here instead of tooting my horn :-)

I am not sure if I am on the Atkins Ping List, but if you could, would you please add me :) Both Notforprophet and I have had a lot of luck with Atkins, and like to see the additional information, recipes on the threads and other good encouragement from others successes.

Thanks!

I appreciate your posts and wisdom, however I rarely visit the site and would not have time to view them. So if you could remove me from the list, thanks.

Why not join me on this journey

I started this journey seven months ago. Over the previous year I had put on a lot of weight and found myself feeling lethargic. My weight was up to 211.5, about 45-50 pounds over normal weight for my height and build (I'm a small-boned male, 5' 10").

I had a friend who had been doing Atkins for about a year and was constantly relaying how much better he felt. Frustrated one Sunday morning because none of my clothes fit, I called him for an overview of the Atkins program.

I started the following day informally and got the Atkins Diet Revolution book that night. I read about a third of the book and that gave me enough information to begin the program in earnest the following day -- April 30, 2003.

I lost an average of about 1/2 pound a day for 60 days and then continued losing weight on a more gradual basis for the next 90 days. The bottom line is that I now weigh 163.5 which is an "ideal" weight for me. I have maintained this weight for two months and I feel GREAT!

I don't view Atkins as a diet, but a different way of eating. I have literally changed the way I eat. I eat lots, but I eat low-carb. My encouragement to others is that it's not simply about weight loss, it's about feeling better. Because I feel so much better, I'm back to exercisting (walking, jogging, rowing machine) on a very regular basis. When you feel good it promotes the desire to do more. At 55, I feel better than I have for years. And yes, the size 34 wardrobe fits much better than the size 38-40, especially on Sundays.

Recently the atkins diet seems to have been over taken by the south beach diet. Which from what I can gather it is the atkins diet for 2 weeks followed by the GI diet. I found s great curry recipe for those who want to loose weight (chicken curry recipe). I'm a really big curry fan.
