Hi everyone I am also from Victoria on Beautiful Vancouver Island. I am glad I came across this web site. There is alot of information here.
I started Atkins April 8/03 and it's been one month now I have lost as of this morning 17 lbs. I am going on a golf trip at the end of May my target for then is 25 lbs or more thats my first target weight. I have brought my blood sugars back to normal and I have so much energy and I think clearly again, I do miss my odd beer so if they can come with a low carb beer that would be great.
I will post another progress report before my golf trip at he end of the month and let you all know if I made it.

Cheers
