Why don't you just cut down on the number of servings of starchy carbs you eat? Limit it to two a day, and see if that helps. The Atkins plan is very different from SB, and you count carbs, but subtract the fiber grams. On SB you don't need to count carbs, you just need to eat legal stuff. 35 pounds lost is pretty good. If you are losing, why not just keep doing what you are doing? You know..if it ain't broke don't fix it!
