13-15 lbs is REALLY good and something you should proud of. Imagine how well you could have done if you had stuck to the program. You have proof that it works now right!?! I lost 17 lbs my first month on Atkins and have lost another 6 lbs since Oct 1st and that for me has been the motivation I've needed...and thinking about how good I'm going to look when my friends and family will still be whining about big they are and how they need to lose weight. I know it's difficult when you don't have the support from family and friends but you have to dig deep and find the will to make the best decisions for you. This WOL takes work and planning and commitment. Some fast food places have items you can order that are semi atkins friendly but most don't and so it's best just to avoid them all together especially pizza places..which are my favorite so I feel your pain. Just remember pizza isn't going anywhere and will always be there and later on as you go through the rungs, you'll find ways to create atkins friendly tasty pizzas at home! I'm sure there are tons of receipes out there already. Are you setting mini goals for yourself...giving yourself attainable goals each week or joining in any of the challenges on this board. You will find tons of support here...just need to check in as often as possible!

Keep going and be strong!
