Atkins gave me the energy of a 12 year-old again. That's almost better than the weight loss.

Atkins helped me to bond with my dogs. Sounds silly eh? DH and I are the proud parents to 2 VERY active german shepherd dogs. After years of not being able to run due to obesity and knee pain, I can now run with them every morning. They LOVE their morning run -- it's our "together" time -- all 3 of us get to increase our heart rate and watch the sun come up every morning.

The ONLY negative is that the dogs don't understand the concept of "taking a day off from running." When I DO take a day off they get very sad and sulky. But we're working on that.

... helped me have a better relationship with my kids.

i have more energy and more patience, less short tempered and happier. mornings used to be mommy groggily getting them out of bed, turning on the tv and telling them to be quiet so i could rest... and now we go for a walk to the park every morning.
