I bought Dr. Atkins book the other day but haven't had time to read it yet, am just trying to cut down on the carbs right now.
My MIL bought the South Beach diet book, her and my FIL are going on that program. Do you know anything about that one?

BTW...I already take Vitamin C, E and Potassium.

I don't know much about the South Beach Diet, but from hearing people talk it seems like a low-carb diet, just not as low as Atkins. I think one could do Atkins until they get to their desired weight and then maintain it on the South Beach Diet. Nothing will take the weight off quicker than Atkins. I lost 10 lbs in the first two weeks. I stay on it now because it has relieved some of my little nagging health concerns. Hopefully my colesterol is going down. Time will tell. I slip a little now and then and eat a cracker, and I drink that cup of morning coffee which Atkins says is a no no because while it has no carbs, it makes them in your body. But it's my one daily vice. I will pray that you adjust quickly to the diet and lose lots of weight and start to feel better and better. ((((((Aqua))))))
