I'd like to hear from people who have recently tried either Dr. Atkins or
The Zone diet to deal with excess weight. I've noticed a number of people
on this listserve have mentioned these diets as being "The Answer".

I've been diligently following a low fat gf diet and just as diligently my
body is fighting and winning.  Many years ago (pre-knowing I was celiac) I
followed the Dr. Atkins diet, and coincidentally, felt wonderful probably
because it was also basically gluten free.  At that time the diet included
allowing a lot of fat & I haven't returned to it thinking that it probably
wasn't very good for me.

BTW, I am menopausal & on HRT - tried other means (natural) to control
symptoms & threw in the towel.

Thanks in advance for any help or hints,
