[Karen4359]

Just watched a show on E TV and celebities that have lost ALOT more weight than I need too and they all look great....there is NO reason why I can't drop the 30 lbs I need to lose..... Valerie B is only 3 years younger than I am and she looks great. I'd like to lose it in 5 mths...that's my goal April 18th..but if I don't I WILL keep going. 50 5 ft 4 and weigh about 165 (will weigh in in the am ) now to drop all Diet sodas...WATER WATER WATER !

Welcome to the Atkins Board Karen.

Glad you found the board and are excited about staring. First of all, Atkins is not a "diet" it's a way of eating over a lifetime. Once you learn how to eat this way you will wonder why you didn't start long before now. A few tips to help get you started: Drink a minimum 64 ounces of pure water daily (nothing added), exercise and take a non-iron multivitamin - these are mandatory with Atkins so start now and get off on the right foot.

Make sure you read the book - it will give you the knowledge you need to get to your goal (2002 Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution [DANDR]), eat only the foods on the acceptable food list and eat a variety of foods and vegetables.

Good luck to you!
