I have been bouncing with joy this whole weekend. I even went down a pound a sat. My boyfriend kept saying how stupid he thought Atkins was. Now I have the proof that it is not doing anything bad to my body. :joy :joy :joy :joy

Wow that is amazing and inspiring, in fact that is the very reason my Doctor told me to go on this diet, and my numbers were almost identical to yours. I have only been on for two weeks and I will go back in April to re-test. Thanks for posting this.

WHAT?!!! Don't you know that Atkins crap will kill you?! Don't you know you're going to clog your arteries with all that fat and die of a heart attack?!!

Hmm, could it be that the Atkins naysayers are WRONG?!!

Congratulations, LadyDana, I think that's wonderful! Why can't the rest of the world catch on to what we've discovered? It's almost as if we've found the answer to the runaway problems of obeisity, diabetes, and heart disease, and nobody will listen!

I really am so thrilled for you!

OK. This post is over a year old, guys.

I just thought I'd let you know.

It's ooookay. Don't thank me.

It's what I do.

It's called a "cold case." It's fun to bring them out once in a while, add something, and see who jumps on the bandwagon. You screwed it up, though!

Re: Just had to tell you!!!!!My High Cholesterol is gone!

Wow! That's great! I am really curious to get mine done as I had it done shortly before I started Atkins last year. I had never had it done before and was surprised it wasn't THAT high (190). do those home kits work well?

Re: Just had to tell you!!!!!My High Cholesterol is gone!

Hey, Higgies, it's so great to see you, again. But, sorry, guy, getting your younger brother to pose for your "after" photo just ain't on!

Seriously, WOW!!!

Cuz the drug companies make billions off brainwashing the world to take meds. Preventive medicine bankrupts them!!
