I have been on Atkin's since Jan.1/02 and have lost 24 lbs. I weighed 192 when I started. I have been staying on the induction and feel great. Nothing has kept me so interested in losing weight before like the Atkin's Diet has. My brother started the same time as I did and he has lost 25 lbs. I have 26 lbs. to go. I hope that these forums will give me the incentive to keep going.
