Healthy Low-Carb Living Great Start Giveaway Winners

On Jan. 4th we announced that we have were having a giveaway to celebrate the new year and help you succeed with your low-carb goals in 2008. All you had to do was look at the photos posted and send in your guesses along with your name and address. Even if all your guesses were wrong, you were entered into the drawing. The point was to have fun, make you think a bit, and give away some fantastic prizes. I think it's safe to say Mission Accomplished!

The response was overwhelming and many of you mentioned how much fun you had in the process. I can only hope it's been as half as fun for you as it has been for me! I've enjoyed this so much and I'm sad to see it ending. But I'm looking forward to our next giveaway which we'll be announcing within the next several weeks. :0)

Thanks to the generosity of so many wonderful people who strive to help the low-carb community, 10 of you will soon own some of the best low-carb products and books available! We had 124 entries and I wish we could have given each one of you a prize.


A basket containing all the entries we received!


I'm sure you are ready to get on with announcing the winners, but first we need to solve the mystery pictures! These turned out to be tougher than I'd thought they'd be. But you all had such great guesses! And I honestly never thought about how similar some items look up close!

No one got them all right, but some came pretty close! We had 5 people who guessed 6 out of 8 correct and I want to recognize them here for their great eye for details!

    More About The Prizes You Might Win....

    Today I want to look at a couple more prizes you could win in our Healthy Low-Carb Living Blog's Great Start Giveaway this month.

    When someone mentions low-carb, usually the first plan to come to mind is the Atkins diet. While there are other great low-carb plans available, most of the bad press has been aimed at Dr. Atkins. Thankfully the word is starting to get out about the wonderful healthy benefits of low-carb living. While the "craze" may be gone, and good riddance I might add, the staying power of low-carb plans are proving themselves. People from all over are enjoying satisfying meals while improving their health and losing weight! Dr. Atkins diet was the plan that changed my life forever. This is why I'm so happy to be giving away a copy of Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution to one of you lucky winners.


    You may not know this, but Dr. Atkins used to struggle with his weight. It was in an attempt to lose weight himself that he stumbled upon what is now one of the most amazing diet plans I've ever seen.I can't say it any better than the back cover does, so here ya go:

    With more than six years on the New York Times bestseller list, Dr. Atkins' nutritional approach has taken America by storm. Now, Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution offers not just weight loss, but also total wellness.
    With results starting to show in just fourteen days, find out how you can:
  • Re-energize yourself.
  • Reach you ideal weight... and stay there!
  • Eat the delicious meals you love.
  • Never count calories.
  • Reduce the risk factors associated with major health problems, including chronic fatigue, diabetes and high blood pressure.

    Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution also provides tips on how to jump-start the program, delicious recipes, case studies, new information on how to do Atkins, and studies that support the safety and efficacy of the Atkins Nutritional Approach.

    (Amy's note: I LOVE this last line!!)

    Everyone knows someone who has lost weight with Atkins. Now you can be that someone!


  • Of course if you are already utilizing a low-carb plan, you'll need a way to keep track of those carbs. Which is why we are excited to be including the Cal-Carb Clicker in this giveaway!

    This handy little item helps you easily keep track of calories, carbs, and water intake. Don't track calories? You can easily use that part of the clicker to track something else. It's super easy to set up and use. I have mine hanging from my key chain and I'm always reaching in my purse and clicking away. If you are tired of lugging around a food journal this is the ideal product for you! To learn more about this great little weight loss tool, you can visit their website at www.calcarbclicker.com

    If you haven't joined in the fun, be sure to have your entries submitted by Jan. 24th!
