Someone had posted a message before about The Harvest Diet/ It is apparently like Atlkins except that you can have fruit but n skin on chicken and no pork etc. i cant find it now, if anyone has more info about the harvest, please share it with me. thank you

sounds a bit like south beach - no skin on meat, no fatty cuts of meat, but you can fruit but not fruit juice....

Do you know anyone that has lost weight on this one? I am in OWL on Atkins and so fruits make me nervous because of the sugars in them and all. I am curious to learn more about the eating plan you are talking about.

NO i don't know anyone who has lost weight. I only remember reading about somewhere on this forum but that is it. It is whole foods i guess. No pork, ham or skin on chicken. I think you can still have mayo and butter but i am not positive. Great Job on Atkins MissScruff. I read your stats. How long did it take you to get to the weight you are at now? My sister has done Atkins for over 1 year now. She does have fruit in the evening. She has frozen blueberried, raspberries or strawberries with unsweetened whipped heavy cream. she hasn't had any weight gain with that. I am sort of looking for a quick fix i think. Thanksgiving is coming up and i will be with all of my inlaws. (4 SIL, 4 BIL, Mother and Father in law) Very skinny, healthy and in shape inlaws. i am 195 pounds and was 130 when i got married 15 years ago. i have seen them since of course, but in the last couple of years i have only seen them a few times because i am ashamed and embarrassed. i make up excuses for not going, my husband knows why though. BUT Thanksgiving, i have no excuse and man i am feeling the pressure. i know i shouldnt care what others think, but i do. i am embarrassed for my husband too. he is such a wonderful man and he doesn't mind that i am overweight, he is more concerned with how i am feeling because of it, both healthwise and emotionally. anyway, i am done venting. i need to stop thinking about it and JUST DO IT. As one of the other low carbers said, once i get through the first day the motivation and desire will come because i will feel better even after that first day.
