Unhappy WW vs. Atkins... I need a pep talk

I have a friend that is doing Weight Watchers, she started the same time I started Atkins. We are both losing I'd say at the same pace...IF I could stick to this WOE. When Im faithful this WOE works wonders, weight melts off. My prob is I hate being left out of gatherings because I eat so differently - I usually end up thinking, "well, I'll just have a little because Im hungry and theres nothing for me to eat" which usually turns into a 2-3 day cheat.

So here's me and my little will power - I've lost a total of 4 lbs in 2 months. PITIFUL!!!

My friend eats what I call more 'normal' foods in moderation and has lost (by my best guess.. I know for sure its at least 15) 20 lbs in 7 weeks.

I feel like a big baby here - do I just need someone to tell me to suck it up and quit cheating. I self sabatoge all the time.

All advice - even brutal honesty or yelling - is much welcome.
