First off let me say "Hi" as I just joined the forum and am looking forward to being a part of this community.

I've lost about 15lbs so far and I have about 40 more to go. I think I read in Dr. Atkins book (I think that was the book) that if you reach a plateau that you may need to take a break from the program and then go back to induction to jump start the weight loss again.

I did take a break once during the 1.5 months that I've been on atkins for about two weeks, more because of two solid weeks of travel for my job than anything else (that was after one month on the plan). When another month comes along, should I break again? If so, for how long..one week, two weeks?

I am still in Ketosis and am still losing weight though not as fast as some people seem to be losing.

Any ideas/comments would be greatly appreciated!!
