This diet has been magic for me

Hi I am Jon,

This diet has worked wonders for me.

The only problem is that you start feeling great and forget to keep to the diet! But after a couple of relapses, you finally get the hang of it. I Just wish I could get hold of more strawberries!

6'2'' (was 120kg, now 90kg)

in only 10 weeks as well. I can run again whereas in the past a 1km walk left me breathless.

I never had problem with my weight until about my 30th bday, though.

Hey Jon... I agree this way of life is amazing. I wish I had understood the concepts and science of this diet years ago... I would have been able to spend my 30's in a different way.
I have lost over 50 lbs thus far... and have a bit to go yet... but I am totally confidant that by my 40th bday in January I will be below 200lbs and way fit...
I have found within me the commitment to living low carb... and I know it is a lifetime decision.

I feel great too... I have not relapsed... but I am in a different place than you are... I also don't set myself up for failure by having carb rich foods anywhere around. I also live alone so it is easier for sure.

I am having blood work done on Monday, and will find out my blood type and respond to your other post!

I think peoples negative response to Atkins comes down to fear, based on what is said about it in the mainstream media... and I totally believe that the negative slant on Atkins is totally fueled by media outlets who are in bed with Carb rich big business... does that make sense...
I kind of envision us... the followers and believers of the ATKINS way of life....as the lambs who broke away from the pack which are being led to the slaughter. sick imagery I know, but I am glad to have seen the light. I am glad for you too!!!

Glad your aboard!

OH and btw... I have been able to run too... and feel ok running... its exciting!
