Hi, I successfully lost 8 stones on the Atkins diet with no ill health whatsoever, but then (lol) when I got slim and gorgeous ;o) I got pregnant and had to come off the diet, my weight has ballooned back up again to the weight I was before the diet which means I've got to start all over again!!! (sigh) but to be fair as soon as I found out I was preganant I ate whatever I wanted (craved KFC and icecream!!) which didn't help. Atkins is not a quick fix diet, it's a lifestyle that you've got to stick to for the rest of your life to prevent getting into the habits you used to be in. My biggest problem is SUGAR!!!
If the camera adds 10lbs stop eating cameras!!!

Hi, in emperial measures, (that we use a lot in England) a stone is the equivilant to 14 pounds in weight, so if I'm 7 stones over weight that's the equivilant to 14lbs x 7 I've got to lose!!

And there are 2.2 pounds in a Kilogram, so one stone is about 6.4kg
