hello all,

I have been a long time Atkins follower (over 3 years). I have been slipping the last few months though. I know the system too well and how to manipulate it I need to try something a bit different. I dabbled in South Beath a year ago and found it to have ill effects on my bowels. So back to Atkins I went. I have been cheatng mostly the last week, more than ever in the last 3 years. I can't even face my scale, but I know my stats are off. I bought the CAD book yesterday and have been reading a bit on the forums before jumping into the book. Trying to get a handle on it. I guess my biggest question is what the biggest differences are between CAD an Atkins. I'm sure the book will answer this for me. I am worried about the RM, setting off cravings though.
