Hi everyone!
I'm Gem, I'm 25 (nearly) and currently weigh just about 18st. I started CD back in August 2008 weighing nearly 22st. I lost 7st in 6 months and got down to 14st 11lbs but I have been messing about ever since and put over 3st back on.
I have been off CD now for about 6 weeks and I have been trying to restart but no luck. I just can't do it anymore. I'm considering Atkins because it seems like a diet I could stick to and perhaps even enjoy-I also think my OH could join me on it and be successful as he hasn't got the restraint for CD.
Could anyone give me any tips or advice?
What are the losses like?
How does it compare to CD in terms of weightloss etc.?
Do you go into ketosis like CD?
Which book is it that you need to buy as I don't want to get the wrong one?
Any help is greatly appreciated! I have read Jim's excellent thread in the sticky section but just need a bit more info.
Thanks xxx
