Hi everyone... I used to post here quite a bit, but it's been awhile... Anyway a little bit over a week ago I decided to dust off my old original first edition hardcover of Dr. Atkins Diet Revolution that I bought off of Amazon a few years ago (I love old vintage books...) and started "Atkins '72" last Monday 3/16... I followed level 1 by the book and my ketostix were showing positive results by Tuesday evening and were purple by Thursday...the first week was kind of tough, but I managed... and I'm down 8.6lbs in one week!
The last part is what really amazes me, since I've been "dieting" for the last several months and losing nicely... So I wasn't expecting anything so dramatic... definitely a pleasant surprise.
I moved on to level 2 this week by just adding some cottage cheese... 4oz provides and additional 5g of carbs and so far so good...I'll keep you posted...
