    Changing my weight loss program

    Due to weight loss prohibitive medications I have only lost 3 pounds in 5 weeks on induction ... and believe me, I have followed the Atkins program very strictly.

    Therefore, I am changing to another weight loss program but I will continue to workout as everyone suggested. Thanks for all the support I've received from new found "thread buddies" and I wish all of you the success.

    Good luck to everyone,

      So sorry to see you leave us but sometimes it's for the best. Atkins doesn't work for everyone Good luck with whatever you try now.

          You might want to check out the book Eat Right for Your Type by Peter D'Adamos. He has a plan about eating what is right for your bloodtype. Low carb diets are great for type O's. Hubby wants me to get if for him to see how he should approach a new eating plan as he doesn't think he can do Atkins. I am type O and so far it is working for me.

          Good luck! I hope you find the right plan for you!

            I'm A- and atkins works for me. I dont really believe that bloodtype has anything to do with what diet works.

                Just making an alternative suggestion to Atkins. I haven't read the book yet just read a bit about the book. I hope to pick it up at the library today when I return my Atkins book.

                  Re: Changing my weight loss program

                  I was really into the blood type program for a while, and the menu suggested for my A/B blood was Mediterranean, which I totally grooved with. I think it's not broadly enough used yet for anyone to be very up on how it works.

                  I hope you'll find something that works for you, come back and tell how you're doing...

                      Look up the 'Good Mood Diet.' It might do the trick for you. Once I am in maintenance, I plan on following a careful carb watching version of that diet.

                          Good luck everyone! I read Atkins was good for MS so I am trying it.

                            Losing weight is difficult enough without other health issues adding to the battle. Sorry to hear that Atkins isn't right for you but I do understand. I have some health issues myself and so I'm watching things very closely.

                            Best of luck on finding a new program and in your weight loss journey.

                              Good luck to you -- health problems and medications make it much more challenging to do any diet -- hope you find one that helps you.
