About / History

success in past with ability to maintain weight loss of 40 pounds after doing Atkins about 7 years ago, but unable to lose more weight on other diets - only able to maintain weight with low intake of sugars. Hard to follow but I don't feel deprived as if I'm starving and I'm less hungry... After 10 days this time energy level way up!!!!!
