This is strange. I think i must be gaining muscle, because i have been
working out on a regular basis, and am now apparently 1.5lb heavier or so
than about three weeks ago.
Three weeks ago my loss all but stopped, and i stopped really doing

I'm guessing I just ran into my first batch of rancid flax seeds.  I bought about
1 lb of them (from the bulk bins) at Whole Foods a couple of weeks (or less) ago.  
Today I ground some of them in my coffee grinder to make cereal, but they smelled
like FISH!  Somehow I thought ...

I am getting leg muscle aches in particular at night while sleeping. I
take one Potassium tablet per day and drink tons of water. Any thoughts on
how I might resolve this problem absent aspirin/tylenol?
Also, does the Potassium tablet make one retain water?

What can I snack on? I have been on a 1500 calorie diet for 3 years and I
lost 150 pounds the first 3 months and haven't lost but 20 since. I am
disabled and cannot workout. What seeds or nuts are low carb? I cannot have
anything with artificial sweeteners due to allergies.

Went on South Beach Diet, lost 12.5 pounds in 9 days, now I am having a GOUT
ATTACK... Great!, nothing ever goes right, and nothing can ever be friggin
easy...
You lose weight but then you have side effects..

I've stopped eating pasta, bread, rice, potatoes, corn, potato chips,
cake, candy and chocolate bars.  Must I give up fruit too?  I love
fruit!  I have been snacking on slices of apple with old cheddar
cheese.  I also love tangerines and seedless grapes. A friend recently

Ok, I saw this ad in today's Parade Magazine.  If I remember correctly,
Morningstar Farms is all frozen vegetarian stuff, veggie burgers, etc, and
this ad says they have "13 lower fat veggie options . . . all with 4 grams

Hi. Can somebody point me in the right direction for some low carb recipes
please? Also, what is a good snack to eat? I would have eaten bread in the
past in between meals or at night if I was hungery, but thats out now. I was
thinking cheese maybe? Thanks

To ask them to break out the carb count of the starchy
accompaniments.  I don't think that would compromise their non-LC
philosophy, and it would make their magazine more useful to many
people who currently find it practically useless.  BTW, I was

Greetings all,

Interested in starting some food lifestyle
changes...
Hello all,
Been trying to reduce my weight since August 2003

The Subway stores in my area [Indy]charge .40 cents to use the Atkins' low
Carb wrap on any other menu choice.  I think that is a rip off.
They allow other choices of bread for no extra charge.
Maybe email to them will change that extra fee.

Hi there, I have been reading here and there and I figured I'd post
something since I'm on Atkins too and I could really use some advice and
support sometimes.
I started induction Sept 15 2003 at 183 pounds.

Hi,
I've taken the plunge and decided to start Atkins, I was diagnosed
with Diabetes (the controllable kind by diet) and need some input on
my first grocery list.

Well, I was just wondering when the low carb "fad" I keep reading about will
