Sorry to be anonymous (the clones know who it is) but I really AM excited about this and I wanted to shout it from the rooftops. Just heard today that someone who my spouse and I are very close to (and who's a Mudcatter to boot) has dropped 76 lbs (how much is that in stones?) by following the Atkins diet for seven months.

I can't imagine how difficult this good person's battle has been over quite a few years, and I know that many times they've just given up and said "what's the use?"

I know very little about Atkins other than many doctors said/say that it's dangerous and doesn't work, but it would appear that our loved one got nowhere time and again with the mainstream diets......so however it works...it works...and her health has never been better.

Maybe when they reach their goal they'll come here in person and tell about it, but to me..... seventy six pounds is MUCH MORE than the two speakers I've carried around for years.....and that's a LOT of weight! I'm very impressed.
