    Saying Goodbye!

    Hey guys,
    I just wanted to thank eveyone for all their support and kind words. This was my second time around and each time, I always got all the questions I asked answered and I enjoyed talking with people who have been sucessful. Under the advice of my doctor I will not longer be able to continuing this diet. I will however be sticking to a weight loss program thats right for me. I hope all of you continue this wonderful website and good luck on your weight loss.
    THANKS A BUNCH!! YOUR WONDERFUL PEOPLE!!!

      Good luck to you. I'm sorry to see that your doctor hasn't been keeping up with the latest medical studies about low glycemic diets and carbohydrate controlled diets. That's unfortunate. But I'm sure one day he/she will take the time to re-educate him/herself on cutting edge nutritional and medical information.

        Not2Late,
        I have to say I'm scared of all the fat I'm eating. I'm trusting this diet to be what I need.
        So far after 6 days my cravings are pretty much gone.
        I've lost 4 pounds and wish it were more.
        I have high cholesterol and will be having that checked in a couple of weeks.
        Could You please advise me as to how many calories in a day I should be eating. I've been falling around 1500. It's hard to keep the calories down with such high fat content.
        I'm still on the hunt for Dr Atkins book. You said 2002 edition correct?
        Can I have it's full title please and also could you please give me some encouragement on weight loss and the amount of fat we are aloud to eat.
        I realize it's "good" fat but it's still high.
        By the way those Marie Dressings are crazy delicious!
        Thank You

          Click this link to Amazon to buy the book. Even with shipping it's less than $5.00 (in the US).

              The American Heart Association is now recommending that to limit trans fats (hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils). They are also recommending to use natural oils---both plant and animal. So it's not the amount of fat, it's the type of fat you eat.

              You might want to read a few books about this:
              Know Your Fats by Mary P. Enig
              Cholesterol Myths by Uffe Ravnskov, M.D., Ph.D
              The Great Cholesterol Con by Anthony Colpo

              Since we don't eat margarine or vegetable shortening on Atkins, the fats we eat are natural ones, like olive oil, butter and even the bits of fat attached to meats. Natural fats are good fats.

              Also we don't eat "a lot" of fat. There's a sticky thread near the top of this forum about how much fat we should be eating. It amounts to about a tablespoon of added fat per meal. So a tablespoon of olive oil on your salad veggies is the right amount.

                Wishing you the best of luck. I know from experience I had to find a program that was right for me, and mine was Atkins.

                Best wishes! Good luck on your future success at weight loss.
