Thumbs up GO ALLURA D!!!

You are truly an inspiration to those of us just starting this journey. I'm so thrilled for you! When I reach and pass that magical barrier of 200, you'll probably hear me shouting down there in Florida. Congratulations and keep up the good work. You can do it. I know you can.

With all these such wonderful inspirations from all, how can any of us loose. I've lost another three pounds, of course the last five is a bit harder or I should say just plain slower. But you know, there is so many great foods out there and I'm loving some of the new found net 2 carb sweets too. Especially the enduldge brands.. just like a true hershey bar when I need my monthly fix.

Let's all keep it up....

Allure,

I'm very excited to know so much and lose so much. I really dream that I could afford just a small cafe in Fresno, Ca and just serve breakfast & lunch. All the foods and deserts of Atkins.

Anything's possible, but I have to keep my husband's business going right now.....

Hi Allura!
I am glad to see a familiar face that is back on track! This is my first post since falling off last last spring then back on in the summer and off again!! I know this is the right way for me but there are just so many distractions along the way!
I am so proud and impressed with the people that have been plugging away while I have been lost in Carbo land! I wish I was one of them. I may even start a journal this ?? time around . Just a little commitment might be good for me!
I have been tempted to reply to so many others but, as you have done so well and are ready to jump back on well here's a hand up.....I am on day four and already feeling better!!
See you on the wagon girl!
