Hi Just Dave,
You aren't weak, you are human, just like all of us. And I know I am as much an addict to sugar as anyone is to alcohol, cigarettes, etc. But Atkins keeps the cravings controlable, which is half the battle.
I had tried Atkins twice prior to this time, and I really didn't see much difference in my rate of success during induction each time. I have read posts by other people saying they have, so maybe it's a YMMV kind of thing.
All I know is that Atkins is the ONLY WOE that gets that scale moving down for me, PLUS I feel so good, that in itself is encouragment to keep going!
Don't give up Dave...you're worth it!

Have a good day!
