    ================
    I had a low-carb Healthy Choice dinner of 300 calories, plus 2 slices
    low-carb bread = 380 calories. Bedtime snack was 1/2 an apple, about 40
    calories. Walked the treadmill for 1.86 miles but seem stuck at 165/166
    lbs.

    So, to recap your sig, you're at exactly the weight you were over three
    years ago. And on your new self-created diet plan, you lost an initial
    six pounds in several days and have lost zero weight since.

    How is this new plan then better than Atkins was? And when are you going
    to acknowledge that you need to eat less and/or exercise more if you
    intend to lose more weight?

    ===================='
    I don't know. You tell me. Since you're also on the Weight Watcher, I'm
    sure you'll claim to drop calories under 1200 now and start the starvation
    process (chills, heart palps, dizziness). Or you'll suggest I go back on
    "strict LC," drop the calories below 1200 and start eating cups and cups of
    SUMPTUOUS vegetarian fare. You know, some salad, a tiny piece of meat, 3
    cups of veggies and 64 oz of unnecessary water - and start the *SAME*
    starvation process...... ;-)

    Well if I couldn't lose on Atkins and 1200 calories a day, I figured I'd try
    something else after a 2 year stall LCing. My NP suggested I do this and
    it sounded great to me. But it seems the LC diet has *changed* on this NG
    from SUMPTUOUS meat based meals, to LC veggie meals. I wonder why? CALORIES
    perhaps? So Carmen, tell us, how much are YOU losing each week on LC? ;-)

    I hit goal in August 2000. I was able to do that after I realized
    that calories count. I'm diabetic so I need to stay low-carb. Of
    course the fact that calories count has been known and told in this
    group for years. People hear what they want to hear. Hell, Roger
    himself told you that calories count 2 years ago.
    The group hasn't gone veggie. You're seeing what you want to see.

    1200c when you're on a diet like Atkins which contains a lot of fat is not
    much food. Look at the calories in bacon, cheese, cream, nuts, butter etc.
    Of course I could drop under 1000c and lose weight, but then I had the

    Oh brother. Wysong, I was here when you were here before, and that is total
    bullpucky. I remember how so many of us tried to help you when you
    complained ad nauseum re being stalled, but pretty much refused to take
    anyone's advice, just railed endlessly against Atkins. There was a LOT of
    discussion about how some people need to also count calories. You're either
    lying purposely, or have the memory of a post-menopausal gnat.

    Remember Tina Kaye? Remember Nina? How they had to cut back... way back...
    on calories to finally get to goal? We've always known that is often
    necessary, although many of us lost weight nicely at first without doing so.
    Nothing has changed... not even your whining.

    Yeah, right. Actually, over time I think the message has gotten through that
    after the first weeks of induction you're *supposed* to add as many low-carb
    vegetables as you can get away with. Veggies have a very high nutrient
    density, and Atkins always was about health as well as weight loss. I think
    the book revisions and emphasis on their website has been made continually
    stronger to counteract the tendency some dieters have to continue
    induction-style eating when they don't need to. That's a good thing, in my
    opinion. It doesn't make Atkins invalid, however, as that is what he
    recommended all along. And while most of us still center our meals around
    meat/poultry/fish/eggs/cheese plus veggies, there have always been
    vegetarian low-carbers here.

    IOW, you're full of it, Wysong.

    They also added weight training to that to get to goal if I remember
    correctly. Probably added more cardio too but I do not recall.

    A bit more reading and I see it's worse than I thought. You've been

    And here's something funny: back then the story was that you gained

    in my experience, there IS a lot of discussion about veggies here in
    ASD-LC,(not more than meat) but i believe that is due to the fact
    that so many of us are really enjoying eating them for the first
    time in our lives!

    I find the discussions regarding veggies get lost in the discussions
    about the LC frankenfoods.

    I *could* but I do not feel like it and am busy with
    a few Paleo and organic food groups.
