My husband, and my self started Atkin's on June 30th, 2003. We have been doing pretty well. We are guilt free for 12 days. He has lost 9 lbs, and I have lost 12.

We have been trying a lot of different recipes I have found on the net, and I just ordered a whole case of low carb tortillas so, we can eat our favorite food Tacos, and Nachos.

I have not read the whole Atkins book, however, I have peeked in what I thought was the most important part, and printed the Induction part so; we could use it for our plan.

I need to lose 87 more lbs, and hubby wants to lose 21 more lbs. I think it will take me longer then it will take him.

We gave up our Diet Pepsi, and Diet 7 up, and now love Diet Rite Cola’s.
I have found a couple great dessert recipes too help the sugar cravings, and I made pancakes the other day that came out wonderful.
I try to make a good dinner every night, and have to make my husband lunches every night too eat at 2 or 3 am, and this is real hard any ideas would be great.

Also I really would love to know the best low carb, no sugar (accept for Splenda) Brownies I can make.

Well that is a little bit about us we are looking forward to chatting with everyone, and helping support everyone to get to their goal. Good Luck to everyone...
