Welcome,

I avoided Atkins for several years too long because of the media spin on the diet. I eat healthier now that I think I ever had. Bread and buns don't make for health--protein, veggies, berries etc. do.

I definitely noticed that my allergies got much better when I was following Atkins faithfully. I had been cheat free for months and whenever I do cheat I find that sinuses start to act up due to the allergies.

This WOL can be very rewarding, I only wish I had started in a group like this when I first started Atkins a year ago. I'm sure I would be closer to my goal.
