i'm not understanding how caffiene inhibits weight loss? do you mind explaining? i'm not trying to be sarcastic/assholish, i'm genuinely curious. the original stack for weight loss was caffiene, asprin and ephedra and that was really good at weight loss, so i don't understand what you wrote.


also, an open question to everyone on the atkins diet... why not try to lose weight the normal way? i mean, if your on atkins, you obviously have the will power to stick to your diet. and it sounds like everyone's losing weight at a rate of 2-3 pounds per week, which is what's considered healthy in a normal weight loss program.
