Default 4 Year Atkinsversary!
Today, January 19, 2006 marks my 4th year following the Atkins way of life. I feel better than ever (despite the critics who say this isn't a healthy lifestyle!) Shouldn't I be dead by now?

1. Cholesterol is lower than ever before. My ratio is a whopping 1.12.
2. Blood pressure is 100/70. Consistently.
3. Acid reflux is HISTORY!
4. No more chronic IBS!
5. Body fat is 16%.
6. Current weight is 5 pounds below my initial goal.
7. Currently running upwards of 40 miles every week.
8. Training for my first full marathon February 26, 2006.

Yes, Virginia, there is a darned great life with Atkins!

Betty
