Well, after 16 days (5 of which were fat fasts, the rest of which were Atkins '72 Induction) I have lost 4 pounds. 
Not bad for a snail paced metabolism.
I am thinking that I lost about 1/2 lb each fat fast and very little other days. Not surprising... I think I am one of the unlucky few metabolically resistant folks who will need to use a day or two of the fat fast each week to lose. That is ok with me. I can live with that. I am thinking I will lose closer to 1 lb a week from now on, doing a fat fast on saturdays (my husband works most saturdays).
But who knows? Maybe my metabolism will pick up with the coconut oil and some kelp and cromium?

Well I wasn't good with Atkins either but I like South Beach because it gives you low fat as well as low carbs. I have been doing 700 calories of low fat protein and lost 4 lbs in 3 days. My metabolism is very sluggish so I am very encouraged. If you do 700 calories of protein and nothing else for 7 days it should jump start you and then you can add 2 cups of veggies. Atleast that is how it is suppose to go

Hey. Wow! I am so glad that you lost 4 pounds these last 2 weeks...I did too! I think that you will pick up speed with your fat-fast/ Atkins plan. Once you lose a little more, your metabolism will probably get better, too. You are making Awesome progress! Keep it up!!!
