Hi all. I know about the whole Atkins thing....I've been on it before, but quit because I couldn't drink my diet soda. I'm just wondering if there's any way to do Atkins and still drink diet soda, or will that not work? Is there anything else besides eating healthy and exercising that really works.....I all ready eat pretty healthy and exercise....Can anyone help? I'm 18, 5'4" and 220 pounds.

My mom drank diet soda while on atkins, and she lost 40 pounds in like, 7 months and shes still losing!!
She switches around from diet to diet, and that helps her lose more weight than one specific diet

my only advice would be to join weightwatchers. im 5'5 and was 224.5lbs...ive been on it for 15 weeks and lost 36.5lbs so far. I thought I ate healthy and exercised enough before but weightwatchers shows u where ur going wrong and helps u work out portion size. its a fantastic plan & allows u to eat anything u like in moderation. there are no banned foods!!! its great...good luck with whatever u do xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx p.s: if u would like an email weightloss buddy then feel free to email me...u can reach me via my webpage which is www.freewebs.com/shrinkingcat xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
