    14 weeks on Atkins

    This week marked my 3rd month in this WOL. I started at 269 and as of today 231. I had my very first noticeable whoosh, 4lbs this past week. You have seen me last night, I did my happy dance! I've been averaging 1.5 lbs every 7 days. I know I have a ways to go before I reach my goal. Just wanted to share my joy.

    I sent DANDR to my twin sister and gave my book away to an office colleague, who's been here since I started Atkins and have seen the changes in me.

            High Five!!! Keep up the good work. It is nice to share the Atkins experience with family (your twin), it can be really fun to share recipes and tips and such.

            Have you visited Linda's low carb recipe site? It is fantastic for recipes.

            All the best

              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!



              Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

                Do you have another copy of DANDR 2002 for you?
