Hi
Welcome to our ADBB family

Great start. Welcome

Congrats to you!!! I've lost before too and I think there is a method to doing Atkins especially extended induction before the rungs. I think the weight lost spread out over the months/years equate to 10 lbs. per month. What's everybody take on that?

I have to disagree here about the extended induction thing. This is my Second time around too and I did 4 weeks of induction only because I screwed up my first two and wanted to do it right. On my 5th week I moved into OWL and haven't looked back. I've lost right at 70 lbs in a little over 6 months IN ONGOING WEIGHT LOSS NOT INDUCTION. I've managed to stick to the plan and feel GREAT about it because I moved into OWL and have allowed myself to have variety! I just can't feel deprived when i'm eating such great things, with the added benefit of the appetite suppression which keeps me from overeating most of the time.
