Just thought I'd go ahead and introduce myself, even though this intro is coming a little late. Currently, I have 15 pounds to lose. My BMI, for what it is worth, is in the high range of normal. I've "tried" Atkins a couple of times in the past with no results, but I sort of gave up during Induction after "modifying" it. This time, I bought the latest edition of DANDR and actually read it. As a result, I am quite sure that I have candida, and I am going to try to get rid of it starting tomorrow. I took a lot of antibiotics last winter as I was constantly sick with colds.
I am trying to lose these 15 pounds very slowly. I figure another month, another couple of months, another several months are going to pass regardless, so I might as well keep with this low-carb WOL and see what happens. If anything, this time around has resulted in positive changes to my current diet; i.e., no more mac & cheese or eating bowls of other pasta. I have also broken my two-a-day, sugar-loaded Red Bull habit.
I am really inspired by the results I see of the people here who have been doing Atkins for a while.
