Hi everyone! Actually I lost 40 lbs on MEDI which is very similar to Atkins and South Beach, between April and August 07. After my thyroid was removed in Nov 07, I gained 10 lbs and have fluctuated up to 20 lbs at times.
I am very focused now and doing strictly Atkins, it will be 2 weeks on Tuesday. Also, I have been jogging and jumping on a rebounder every other day for 30 minutes. It is gentle on the joints and really seems to work on the fat!Laughing

Good for you. I have to get back to my exercising. A rebounder sounds like lots of fun.

Thank you for the information! I also had my Thyroid Gland removed due to Hurtle Cell Cancer and immediately gained 20 pounds! I have been counting calories. I have lost a few pounds, but seem to be stuck! I was wondering about the Atkins and how well that would work for me.
