Default Dieters Advantage

Does this happen to anyone else?

Since starting Atkins I have been taking the Atkins Basic #3
I decided to add the Dieters Advantage in hopes of speeding
things up. And OMG, after the first time I took them
I had the WORSE carb craving since I started 3/10/03.
It really scared me! But the next day I had a small but
welcomed 1/2 pound loss.
I am too afraid to take any more of the dieters advantage
because of the very bad cravings I got, but I sure did like
the loss, however small it was.

Any advice? Should I continue and not be afraid, do
the cravings subside?

I have bought the Advantage, but have not tried it as of yet. Now I am going to have to wait to see if other people have the same cravings before trying it.

I started taking Dieters Advantage last week and haven't noticed any problems. I haven't tried to see any correlation between taking them and weight loss, though, so I can't help you there. I just figured that any supplement is good for me (because I don't get all the nutrients I should from the food I eat because of my food choices). I started out with Atkins #1 (mistake in ordering) and Accel and am now taking Atkins #3, Dieters Advantage, Fish oil (can't remember what its called), and my every so nifty psyllium husk capsules...lol. Its hard for me to choke down so many pills a day, but I really do think it helps me because I need the vitamins and minerals.
