i think you guys are right, and going off the diet to try and "kickstart"
weight loss would be a ticket for disaster.and i bet it would be hard to
start doing atkins again. I could see myself procrastinating and saying
well i'll start back on atkins this monday and then not do it and say well
its the middle of the week now so i'll wait untill next monday and start then and so on and so on.

In regards to what i do for exercise.For my upper body i lift free weights
as much as i can, but even working my upper body causes pain in my pelvis
area so its pretty limited.I do walk a mile every other day,i wish i could jog
but thats impossible right now.I have a physical therapist that works with me on my lower body,but it has been slow going.I broke my pelvis really good.and to top it off i ended up getting arthritis in it.My orthapedic surgeon tells me that after i have this last operation(which is a hip resurfacing)that i will back to the way i was before the wreck. After at least another six months of therapy of course.

Thank-you everybody again for all your support and knowledge about
this way of life or this way of eating.I guess its one in the same.

peace&love
