Making sure we're on the same page here... are you doing Atkins? What phase of the diet are you on? Quote:

Has anybody here tried it?
| Try what exactly? To lose 20 lbs in a week? Scheduling your weight loss is usually ineffective. Mr. Body is hardheaded and does it his own way just to piss you off.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
