SugarFreeSheila.com has always relied 100% on word-of-mouth alone -  I have never advertised.
After over a decade, I also still never ask for site donations, or allow commercial ads of any kind on my website.  

That means nothing colors the content of my website, or my advice.

At a Weight Loss Standstill?  
In the 11+ years of SFS.com, I've never
seen one I couldn't break.  Ever.

If you've signed up for SFS Weekly
Access and have already read the book,
my entire FAQ, & User Agreement,
send over a typical day's menu.  
Losses will resume within 3 days.
I'm known in the low-carb world as Sugar Free Sheila.  With almost 12
years of Atkins under my belt, I've spent most of my free time helping
those who need assistance on the program, and am still going strong.

See how I, your average female, took 30+ pounds off my 5'2" medium frame back in
2001, taking me from a size 10/12 to a 2 in just 5 months - then to a 0 after
implementing strength training, and I've been maintaining ever since. Here you'll get
updated photos, my body fat & cholesterol readings, & much more.  While headshot-
only & one-five-year-old pic "success stories" suffice elsewhere, you won't find that
here. No airbrushing, retouching, or figure-hiding MySpace Angles either.  You see me
as I am, warts & all.

  • SugarFreeSheila.com is meant to serve as a useful illustration of what is
    possible when a low-carb lifestyle is followed properly.  Photos on this website
    are frequently updated to serve as proof for those who suspect Atkins may be
    just a short-term solution, as well as provide visible evidence that my own long-
    term weight loss is valid.  Although these photo updates are indeed somewhat
    of a chore, it is necessary and worth the effort for me to allay the doubts of
    those who require continual evidence of the long-term sustainability of Atkins.  
    After a lifetime of inability to lose weight, if I am able to do this & keep it off,
    ANYONE CAN.

  • Since its humble beginnings as an AOL page back in late 2001,
    SugarFreeSheila.com has offered what I wish I had available to me in my
    former struggles with weight:  tips, support, encouragement, & straight talk
    from someone relatable whenever I needed it.  If something is not already
    covered on SugarFreeSheila.com, I not only welcome e-mails with related
    questions, but vow to reply to every single one.  Prior to contacting me with
    questions, please already have read Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution (the
    sole book of which I am a proponent), my full Atkins FAQ (which is now
    available in audio book-style format), and User Agreement.  That's where we
    start.  I happily welcome e-mails, IMs, and texts from around the globe - after
    all, this is what I've been doing for the better part of a decade, and I'm always
    here to help!

  • I dispel all the crazy myths regarding Atkins - such as its age-old false "no-
    carb" reputation & the notion that it is a "high-protein" diet.  The fact is, tons of
    veggies & plenty of low-glycemic fruits are eaten on this program, as Atkins is
    not a high-protein way of eating, but a low-carbohydrate one.  For example, I
    only have beef/chicken once or twice per day.

  • I provide those embarking on this healthful way of eating with easy, quick,
    scrumptious appetizer, dessert, & dinner sample recipes from my cookbooks.  I
    have even added a new printout Atkins Induction list to the site, which also
    doubles as a printable grocery list, as well as a quick list to refer to ordering at
    restaurants.

Stronger than I usually go for with lip shades for sure, but I like it!
