This website is great - welcome.

I follow Atkins and found that after the first few days during the Induction Period, I was fine and I found that most of the days go by easy - - actually, now that I am almost at that 1 year mark I find it second nature.

You really need to set your mind on what plan you wish to follow. I tried CAD and Atkins. Found that I did better on Atkins - although some have done well on CAD. For me on CAD, it was too easy for me to "lose control" and carb cravings came which gave me the opportunity to eat something I should have not. I also lost only 1 lb in the 3 weeks I did CAD whereas on Atkins I lost 3 lbs during that same time period (after Induction whereas you lose the most in one shot).

Whatever plan you choose - this is a great forum for support - - good luck
