MarshaS,

I switched from Akins to PP in April of 2000 after visiting the clinic in Boulder. At that time I was put on the “Purist” life plan because of existing health conditions. Although I have since strayed from the strict “purist life plan”, I still remain close to it’s way of eating. Presently, I rarely consume more than 20 grams of effective carbs a day.

I kept a complete record of my meals and exercise with “LifeForm” until I reached my goal weight. After that I became very lax, it has been over a year since I made an entry.
