stevia

Thu, 30 Aug 2007 03:37:00 +0000

Hi all,
Does anyone know where to get Stevia online that is reliable and cheaper than
purchasing in the healthfood stores? It is rather pricey in our health food
store. Need something a little cheaper if possible.
Thanks in advance,
Mary

Hit Plateau and need help moving pass it

Wed, 29 Aug 2007 03:09:13 +0000

I started Atkins at the first of the year and I have lost 10 pounds but
now I have been stuck for about 2 weeks.
I’ve increased the amount of exercise from nothing to at least twice a
week and will build from there.
I am still using the induction phase which works great for me. I find
myself not eating as much as I did and food really tastes different.
I need some tips or suggestions on how to jump start the weight loss
again.
TIA

Dare to care

Tue, 28 Aug 2007 22:56:20 +0000

Hi all
Today is the last day of the Dare to care auction that is raising
money for the NSPCA by auctioning beautiful artist bears through the
internet and Teddy Bear Scene.
Please take some time out of your busy schedule to take a quick look
and hopefully place a bid, there is still time if you are quick.
You will find all the bears at
http://www.woodlandteddies.co.uk/daretocare.htm
There are some lovely, very reasonable bears wanting new homes that
would make wonderful christmas presents and you would be supporting
the NSPCA at the same time so please join in
Many thanks & Merry Christmas
Rita

Opps sorry
My alst message wasnt meant for this group I hit the wrong group by
mistake, so please disregard it.
Mind you if you are into Teddies and are looking for a christmas
present by all means read the mail
More on subject is there anyone in the group who went on atkins,
successfully lost weight only to find their GP insists that they do
not remain on the diet but must go low fat to get their cholesterole
down themselves before the Doctor will do anything to help ?
Merry Christmas and happy dieting

Fallen off the bus…..can’t afford the fare to get back on!

Tue, 28 Aug 2007 14:54:42 +0000

Hey there guys/gals!
I just wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions for me….
Jan 2004, I decided i was gonna start atkins. I was 5′11″, 360lbs,
with a 54″ waistline (actually that was under my belly, I didn’t want
to know how big my belly was!) Over the next 4 months, I followed the
plan strictly (at first) and lost 60 pounds! Before I started, I went
to my doctor to get tested, etc. He gave his blessing. My liver
enzymes were 7X what they should have been, my cholesterol, while it
wasn’t ‘deadly’ it was just on the safe side of high, I was
pre-diabetic, and morbidly obese.
As I started to lose weight, I had to get new clothes, and i got a new
nickname too. I went from a 54″ waist to a 48″ waist!!! My new
nickname was “The Incredible Shrinking Butt”
After two months I went back in for a check up, and my doctor did some
quick tests, but nothing too extensive…basic screening for diabetes,
etc. Well, I was no longer considered pre-diabetic, and my chol. went
down, but nothing too exciting.
After four months passed, my doctor couldn’t believe his eyes when he
looked at the test results. My Liver Enzymes were now only twice the
normal level, my cholestrol was at a great level, not to mention my
blood pressure had leveled off, and i had lost 16% of my body weight!
Well, unfortunately, at this point in time, my finances took a turn
for the worst, and lets face it, carbs are cheaper than proteins! I
have gained all the weight back, but even so, have lost 2 inches off
my original waist (i am back up to a 52″ waist).
Here is where I need help/advice….is there such a thing as a ‘poor
man’s atkins’? has somebody done atkins on a VERY low budget and can
help me figure it out? I need to lose the weight again, but it is
tough to do it when money is tight.
