I'm a turtle too... lose very slow even when I do Akins right... even on induction.

This year I finally decided to go with it....

Here's how I see it. When I eat low carb I feel so much better, especially IBS issues.

The main thing is that even if I lose a pound a week, it's better than nothing which is what I get on the "so called standard diet". So I'm taking my pound a week to the bank, and so far this year in 22 weeks, I down 23 pounds. The consistency is what I really need the most. I'm happy with my results.
