I have been low-carbing on Atkins since March- it really has been a wonderful change of lifestyle for me-although I haven't lost enormous amounts of weight-I probably only have about 15 lbs left, this diet enabled me to get off of anti-deppresant medication. I know I will never eat any other way--I also heard that Ruby Tuesday Restaurant has a complete new low-carb menu including atkins cheescake, low carb wraps and pork rhinds or mashed cauliflower in place of mashed potatoes is that WONDERFUL or what!!
