Welcome and congratulations on your success! You are so right about this plan - it's such a great way to eat...I've never spent so much time in the produce department at the grocery store until now! I honestly feel this is the best time of my life!

I remember the time after I stopped smoking (3 pks a day for 35 years) cold turkey. I wasn't a pleasant person to live with but food seemed to be my new bad habit. I gained 20 pounds trying to find something that tasted good to me....I ate to find something I liked...but I wasnt' finding it -- nothing tasted like anything. I lived on Breath Saver mints because they reminded me of cigarettes (I smoked menthols all those years). I never did find food that made me feel good until January of this year when I started the Atkins plan.

Keep up the great work and keep eating your fat and veggies!!
