inky dinky doo I actually started Atkins again on January 26, after being of it for almost a year. So my very first weigh in was yesterday. I actually lost 7 pounds in the one week. I have been on this before and I loose rapidly on it. I lost 55 pounds in less than 6 months the last time..I started that July 2001 it took me till this month to gain back 10 of them, and I put the brakes back on and am going to try and finally make it to my original goal weight of 120. Hopefully with a little luck and determination, I will make it by May 23
