        Heather, välkommen till .
        I wouldn't concern myself about missing ice cream because the low carb version really not very good anyway. There are lots of recipes for but I don't think Dana's book has one.
        Glad you found us, and hope you post often and keep us informed on how your doing.

            No unfortunately. My mothers grandparents were both from Sweden, and my fathers parents were from Denmark. They taught me to speak Danish, but I have long forgotten it. I do have a Swedish penpal and he has been sending me pictures and Swedish folk music and a program to learn to read Swedish so I can research the family genealogy.

                That's cool - my DH did a site with "släktforskning" and it's pretty neat!

                      I'm from Upsala, myself. We still have an apt there and I keep hoping I'll get back for a visit soon.

                      What are you doing in Sweden? Marry a Swede? Or work, or what?

                        Cool, Uppsala is a favorite of many. I haven't been there but I've been thru there when travelling down to Stockholm for a Viking Line Cruise the past couple years, or when going to Arlanda Airport.

                        I met a Swede online in '96 and moved in with him in '97 I've got "permenant uppehållstillstånd & arbetstillstånd" so I'm here for life. Love it so much!

                            this is a great idea...because i'm one of those "second timers"......the first time after having a baby and now this time, after having a baby. i lost 30 lbs the first go around and kept it off(for the most part) and now baby number two. atkins worked great the first time...i'm hoping for the same results.

                            i read something about it not working the second time around. does anyone know about this. it was called something like "golden chance".

                            good luck everyone!

                              Hello tayscafe and Welcome to STAC!

                              I have also heard of the "one golden shot"

                              Not sure where that came from but I don't think it is carved in stone by any means. I am not weighing myself but seem to be losing just as well as I did the first time so I wouldnt give any real creedance to that story. (However, there are people who do believe it)

                              Looking forward to hearing more from you in the forum

                                Hi Tayscafe and Welcome to STAC!!!

                                Some people do believe in the one golden shot. I think that there is a sticky about it at the top of the forum for 14 Day Induction.

                                This way of eating works, regardless if your first or second time. Some people find that its a little harder the second time (definitely was for me, could not bear the sight of an egg). But if you stick to it, it will work.

                                Wishing you the best! Check in with us often!!!
