Hello everyone! I just switched to SP Monday of this week. I can't believe how much better I feel in just 4 days. I'm not bashing Atkins, but I was not doing well on it at all. I was craving carbs like crazy. On SP my cravings were gone in just 2 days!! I hope and pray that this last. I have been enjoying my food and haven't been hungry at all. I don't even think about food that often either which is a big change. I wish I had started this program a long time ago when I first read Dr. S's books. Oh well, we live and learn.

Let's try to post more often. I don't see many folks in here most of the time.

This board has been very quiet lately. Not sure why. Good luck on the food plan. I have been on it since October. I feel better and then I have a bad spurt. I am thinking I am having allergy symptoms. But feel real bad. So I need to take it easy. Good to see someone on here. I have been checking everyday and see no one.

Take care.

Hi E4ellie!

Welcome! Like you, I felt bad on Atkins. Lost weight like crazy tho. I'm not having as much luck on this plan, but I know I, apparently, have to gain weight to heal. It is discouraging, tho. I know I could do better if I would give up the saturated fats, but that's hard to do for me AND give up sugar. Anyway, I digress. I'm going to try to make more time to post when my DH isn't around--he thinks I have an internet boyfriend. LOL.
