I work part of the time as a laborer Anyway,I lost over 30 pounds on Atkins seven years or so ago.

Only count Net Carbs from veggies?
I drank it in the past and it doesn't have any orange juice I don't think - and if it does it is so little it doesn't count. For example the diet soda Polar orange sold in New England has many more than one carb I believe as it DOES list real orange juice as an ingredient if I'm correct, it has a lot less than regular soda or juice though, as far as Diet Mt Dew goes I know it lists no carbs so I wouldn't worry about a lot of orange juice in it...

Only count Net Carbs from veggies?
I would always count everything - and even though it's not listed a diet Coke, Pepsi etc. is really about one carb as it is one serving of diet sweetener. I've seen everyone here use one serving of Splenda, etc. as a carb. If you go over 20 a bit you'll probably still lose weight...

Emotions of weight loss
Lose the weight for yourself, everyone. So what if the opposite sex suddenly will be interested in you if you're thin? Isn't it better than being fat and overlooked? I was teetering near 260, now I'm 195 or so, so I made it as I'm a shade under 6'3" and I'm not hungry as I do Atkins, which is just harder to follow - but it works. Now women are really interested in me again. I'd take being thin over being fat any day! Smile
