I've been following my new diet religiously. I even went to Vegas this past week for a few days and maintained my weight while watching my carb in take. Limiting myself to 30 grams of carbs per day has proven to be doable so far - I've done it for a month and can say it has gone pretty well. I'm finding foods I can eat (there really is a lot out there) that won't take me over the edge each day. Grant it, I'm working with a doctor this time. After having recently failed with South Beach, I saw a weight loss doctor who put me on some medications and gave me the skinny on why carbaholics yo-yo their weight so much. Seriously, I feel loads better and have baggy "big" clothing now. I'm not letting myself shop yet until the summer really gets here.

Hooray for you! Las Vegas is a horrible and wonderful place to be on Atkins!! The buffets have SOOO much tempting food and most of it is high carb -- but then there are a wide variety of low carb foods too!! You did great! I started almost where you did, and I know you can lose the weight!!

BRAVO!!! Way to go on getting with a doc that was able to help you out!! You'll have to share a bit about the yo-yo stuff he said! :) Keep up the GREAT WORK!!

Great job! I started at about where you are now...education was key for me too. I agree with you, there is so much out there we CAN have, I don't feel limited. There are times though..like I wish Mexican places like baja fresh, rubios, etc...would offer whole wheat tortillas and low fat cheese! But, hey... there are enough of the other places and if worse comes t worse, I order a taco salad and don't eat the shell. You can do this...you have the tools and you are off to a slammin' start!
