Welcome to your second go-around.

I know how you feel. I experienced that the first time I went on Atkins years ago. Everyone was so critical and everyone had an opinion based on a lot of misinformation. All my friends were convinced I was going to have a self-induced heart attack or something.

The weird thing, though, to me was always the low-fat diets. I mean, when I was young and all these products started coming out that were reduced fat and they had all this stuff in it to replace the taste or feel of fat. What did we know about that stuff? And yet everyone was so gung ho for it. It always seemed weird to me to be replacing something that humans have been ingesting from natural sources for eons with a lot of artificial stuff instead.

But you know, everyone thought I was the crazy one. LOL!

I love this diet. Can be hard at times but when you get on the scales and you have lost a lot of weight it is well worth it. . Any body know were i can buy low carb sausages in the UK. I used to get asda own brand ones and they were 0.3 per sausage. Now there 2.5 per sausage. Far to high.
