Week 8: 2lb Gain, Ouch! 1 Feb 2012 | 01:13 am
So, I came off Atkins a few days ago and yes I rebelled a bit – quite a bit in fact. I had friends over for dinner on Saturday night and we ate quite a lot – all good food though but then we went out ...
I’m now on the ‘Caroline’ Diet! 27 Jan 2012 | 05:22 am

Week 6 Weigh-in & Atkins Starts Today 16 Jan 2012 | 11:50 pm
No change again this week, though I reported a couple of days ago that I had lost a little under 1lb. Saturday night I went out for a meal and I knew I was starting super-strict Atkins today so I indu...
Another Attempt at Carb Reduction 14 Jan 2012 | 07:23 am
I’m fairly sure I have lost a little weight this week but it’s not much (less than a pound) and I am going out for a meal tomorrow night so that could potentially set me back. Even though the Paleo / ...
The Calorie Formula and Significance of Metabolism 10 Jan 2012 | 12:49 am

Week 5 (New Year Week) – No Change :-( 9 Jan 2012 | 12:27 am
