Default How?

If you don't mind my asking..how many carbs did you allow yourself each day? I'm following a low carb plan 35-45 a day and I'm only losing 1 pound every two weeks! Very frustrating. The first week I dropped 4 pounds then 3 the next and then 1 after that....

Hi Bobby. WOW! 54 pounds in 3 months. That's astounding. How did you do it? Did you include excercise or just the diet itself? My goal weight is about 55 lbs less than what I am now. So seeing you do it in 3 months gives me a lot of hope.

I am lucky if I lose 10 in a month. I want to get to 55 as fast as possible. Please let feel free to share any secrets.

Eeek! Your amazing! How strict are you with the diet? I started the Atkins on Monday. I had a Cappuccino the other day...no sugar of course, but will the milk slow the weight loss down? Keep up the good work!!

Yes the milk will slow the weight loss. Switch to heavy cream.
