Hi Deb,

I've been on CAD/CALP for about 2 1/2 years. During that time, I've "fallen off the wagon" a few times, so it took me that long to lose 70 lbs . I only had between 8-13 lbs left to go before I reached my goal weight, but I got discouraged because I had reached a plateau. So a few months ago I decided to go on Atkins with my husband. Wrong decision!!! I put on 15 lbs in just a few weeks time!! So I am now back on CAD.

I know this is the way I'll be eating for the rest of my life, and I'm content with it. First of all, when I've gone back to eating like I used to, in no time at all, I can't fit into my clothes anymore. Plus, this diet is healthy and I believe that it will prevent me from getting diabetes, which runs in my family AND which also has become a nationwide epidemic.

Anyway, good luck losing weight. We're all behind you
YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

Karen
