  • Reunion

    Hi everybody. I went to my reunion. It was alot of fun. I felt that I looked great. Alot of people gave me great compliments. Saw an old boyfriend who said I looked great. Saw alot of old friends. It was definitely worth going.

    Last Friday night I went off of Atkins. I didn't do too bad, but nonetheless, I went off.

    Friday is my last day at work. We're all going out to lunch to a place called Gordon Biersch. Can't wait. Then Monday I start my new job.

    Alot of good things is starting to happen. It's exciting.

    My friend has been trying to talk me into going on the South Beach Diet.

    What is your guys' opinion about that plan????

    Sounds like you had a great time at the reunion! Now arent you glad you went?! I was wondering how you made out.

    Good luck with the your new job.

    I know a few people that were on South Beach. I did look into it at one point because I was missing fruit but it isnt the plan for me because for right now I need power being in ketosis gives me over my cravings. If I let myself eat the fruits I begin to crave and lose all control. I need the restrictions that Atkins requires.

    There may someone in the forum that is for other low carb plans that may have the information that you are looking for.

        We all have to find the diet that works for us. Someone mentions a new diet and I check it out, but I always come home to Atkins. Go to the library and check it out. Don't add to your diet library collection LOL

          Yup, someone had me seriously researching Nutrisystem for a few days. THe plus was that is was recommended for non-cooks. Well, I haev cooked forever and that was a big negativo for me!! I ended up heading right back here.

            To start off your research you could read this thread comparing SB with Atkins
            http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...ead.php?t=1470
            Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
            Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

              Vikski,


              So glad you had a great time at the reunion!!

              I looked at the South Beach diet too. Way to much measuring for me. I wanted something a little easier. Seemed like you had to put a lot of work into it.

              You are having great success! Why leave us?
