My outline:

1)2 weeks on Atkins KISS...thats no processed meats, dairy, splenda, coffee(after tomorrow), butter, mayo, mostly unprocessed meats and a tons of allowed veggies

2) After 2 weeks then Induction: limiting coffee to 1 cup a day, limiting splenda to 2 packs a day..limiting processed meats to twice a week..limiting cream cheese to 4oz per week.

3)100oz of water every day

4) 30 minutes of exercise every day STARTING TOMORROW

I started on 12/27/2003 as well...and I count my day when I take my last swig of water for the night..start weight for this challenge was 159..although I suspect Im carrying 10 lbs of bloat from the Christmas Cheating.

Yes this is gonna be very challenging, especially the mandatory exercise cuz Im such a couch potato, but its just what I need...thanks again Kathy

Good luck to all,
Glim
