Atkins

scaeagles · 10-20-2005, 08:07 AM

My sister was morbidly obese - around 150 lbs overweight. She started Atkins about a year ago and has lost around 90 lbs. Her blood pressure has lowered dramatically, and it has helped with her blood sugar levels, and surprisingly, cholesterol.

She does exercise daily as well.

Depending on how long you do this, be prepared for plateaus. After my sis lost 50 she didn't lose any for for several weeks despite strict adherrence and exercise. Then it just started to come off again.

I know you'll be successful.
