Guest guest Posted August 13, 1999 Report Share Posted August 13, 1999 Hi, I'm on a couple of other lists as well. I have been on Atkins for about a year. I started at 425, am now 330 and have been stalled there for a few months. I'm a 38- year old biochemist, I live alone except for a great dog.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 1999 Report Share Posted August 13, 1999 Hi Sue and Everyone else, I have been on the Atkins diet since May 1 and have lost 56 lbs. I seem to have slowed down latley but feel so good I can be patient. I would like to loose another 40 or 50 lbs. This has been the only diet that has ever worked for me! Do the vitamins help with the weight loss? Just tried a new treat. I put two tab. of heavy cream in diet root beer and it tasted like a float!

Guest guest Posted August 13, 1999 Report Share Posted August 13, 1999 Sharon another trick we learn a while back was to freeze dolops of whipped cream and put the in different sodas like rootbeer or orange for orsicles and strawberry for strawberry cream. great weight loss so far ive been on since april 30 and lost 45 and im a yoyo right now. --- sharon jett wrote: > > > Hi Sue and Everyone else, > I have been on the Atkins diet since May 1 and have > lost 56 lbs. > I seem to have slowed down latley but feel so good I > can be > patient.

I know it's going to be triple hard to do a low carb program and be a vegan as well, but I going to give it a shot. I've tried for many years to lose 40 pounds to no avail! It never dawned on me that the vegan weigh (excuse the pun) of eating was actually causing me to gain weight because I'm carbohydrate sensitive.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 1999 Report Share Posted August 14, 1999 Dee and Kristi -- Welcome to the list; I'm fairly new myself. almost three weeks now. I noticed that you both wrote that you were decaffeinating, and that you both have headaches. Even if you're going slowly, if you have a caffeine headache, you might not be going slowly enough. About 12 years ago I tried to stop caffeine cold turkey (now that was a huge and painful mistake). About a month after that I weaned myself very slowly off caffeine -- I had about a half cup less coffee each day and replaced the coffee with water (any non-caffeinated fluid will do). No headaches, phew. Now I only use caffeine medicinally. Here's to your continued and headache free success!

Guest guest Posted August 14, 1999 Report Share Posted August 14, 1999 Dear Ree -- I apologize for misspelling your name on my earlier post. I can't type worth a darn, and my spellchecker isn't smart enough to know names. Apparently, neither am I. Welcome and my apologies for bad typing and bad proofreading.
