Seriously considering switching...
from Atkins to PP... I've not been able to find the book yet in the bookstore here, but I'm going out of town tomorrow so I'll look there as well. I don't want to switch plans without reading anything more than the forums... I like to read and be informed as much as possible... but what I've read here has intrigued me A LOT!
I've been doing Atkins for the second time, and have only lost 6 pounds in 6 weeks. It's also my TOM so that's not helping. I work out at the gym 6 days a week, cardio everyday and strength training on alternate days. I think I'm holding on to my "fat" because my body feels it needs it on Atkins.
I'm hoping that once I make the switch over, I'll get the results I"ve been looking for. When I did Atkins the first time, over a year ago, I lost 14 pounds in the two weeks of induction. And I didn't commit to any excercise... the pounds just kind of slid off... now it's so darned hard to make that scale move! I was 204 pounds last year when I started, quit and stayed at about 191 and am currently at 185, looking to get to 160. I'd be a very happy size 10/12. I don't have a tremendous amount of weight to lose, but some progress will be a welcome sight!
I'm looking forward to reading your success stories about the switch from Atkins to PP....
