(It was the disturbing of that metabolism from quitting smoking caused the weight gain.) I tried Atkins for two months and gained three pounds! We ate the same stuff.

Everyone's different, and I am glad the OP found something that works for her/him, because I know how frustrating it can be to maintain a good weight or even attain one.
Nothing works for everyone. I thought the OP asked if there were other ideas.
I would starve if I didn't eat after 1:00. LOL
I always say, what ever works for someone is all good.
