Hi...
I've been somewhat doing the Atkins diet since around April 26th and have lost 14 lbs. I tried Atkins last year around the same time of the year and lost approx. 17 lbs. I find that I am having better luck this time around due to the introduction of so many new products on the market - especially the Russell Stover candies,Carb Smart ice cream bars and low carb wraps (5 grams each). It has made my eating choices much more broad than it was a year ago and I am still losing weight. I may only lose a pound a week, but who cares as long as I'm losing. As long as I have the above mentioned items, I have been able to stick to the rest of the diet the way it should be done. I notice when I'm at a birthday party, I don't drool when cake is served the way I used to do. I really don't feel deprived. Is there anyone else out there who has done the same thing? Any thoughts from anyone?????
