Melissa I'm learning that each body responds so differently to this plan that it is near impossible to predict how much weight can be lost in any given period.

Assuming you never cheat, the best that can be said is, you WILL continue to lose weight through to July.

But you will most likely experiences slow downs...sometimes drastic. You may also experience stalls. A stall is NO weight OR inches lost for at least 4 weeks. Often these are necessary periods of time for the body to catch up with itself.

I would try to make this a committed way of eating for life. Beginning Atkins with a celebratory deadline involved can be very stressful because as I said, who knows how your body will respond months down the track?

So honestly, I think your deadline to be 150 is very ambitious but who knows?

I would try and be content in the knowledge that by July, you are going to look and feel so much better than you do now even if you are not at goal. The family will notice too
