Welcome Aboard Camille! Glad to hear the diet's working for you. Did you experience even greater weight loss when switching from Atkins to Paleo? Also, I tried cooking venison once on an open face grill and it came out rather tough and with little taste. Can you offer any hints? I'm sure venison is really tasty, but since I'm not well skilled in the kitchen, I'm still trying to get it to come out right. Take care. Kevin Eifler Burlingame, CA
