  • Hello

    Hello Everyone! I just started Atkins today after being on Weight Watchers. I was on Weight Watchers for 2 1/2 months and not seeing the weight loss I wanted, so I've decided to change to Atkins. My husband has been on Atkins since January and he's lost 75 pounds, so I am hoping I will see similar results. I really need and want to lose my weight since I want to join the police academy in December.

        Just keep in mind that men lose weight a lot faster than women... So you probably won't lose 75 lbs in the same time frame that he did... Good luck in either case!
