Welcome to a good forum. That quick weight loss at the beginning is very encouraging, isn't it? Please keep in mind that things are going to slow down--wa-a-a-ay down--almost immediately. The "fast weight loss" promises of certain low-carb enthusiasts are overblown--just like for other "diets."

LC is not a "diet" but a commitment. Stick with it and in time--six months, 12 months, ten years--you'll be glad you did.

Meanwhile I notice in your Profile that you have not read any books on Atkins or other LC plans. May I suggest that you obtain at least ONE book by Dr. Atkins himself before you claim to be following his plan. Dr. Atkins's New Diet Revolution (2002 edition--there are many)is a good one. Another excellent resource for LC information--including menus, success stories, and a lot of scientific support--is dietdoctor.com

Best wishes.

Hi there plshazer, congrats on your success! These forums are an excellent resource for support and information. I recommend reading through folks' journals (that's my favorite part of these forums! )
