    Hello 50+ In from Texas

    Just wanted to say hello. I am new at this (posting) and new with Atkins. I am Lolo and I just make 56 yrs old. on the 18th and still working (desk job). I have a supporting husband.

    This is a wonderful site. There is hope. I need to evict 200 lbs that has been housed on my 5'7 body. I have tried to get the weight loss surgery buy my insurance has it as an exclusion. I even tried DARS (TRC) I'm not bad enough. I really believe I can do this with all the support this site has to offer. I know it's not going to be easy. So, I pray for strength.

      Hi Lolo

      Welcome to our little corner of ADBB

      It is great that you have an Atkins support member in your house, as it will make it much easier for you to stay on track, I am sure! Is he going to follow Atkins along with you or stick to his usual way of eating?

      Many of our members with people in the house who support their decision but do not want to eat the same as them find they can easily cope with the 2 different ways of eating by preparing an Atkins-style main dish plus salad or cooked veg from the allowed list and just add a starchy dish like potatoes or rice or pasta for their other half.
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

        Thanks guys. Yes he will some of the times which is okay with me.

        I'm a bit nervous. I have not mention dieting to anyone except my other half. So afraid I will fail.

        Well, today I kicked of my 1st day.

        Breakfast - 2 boiled eggs - 3 bacon - 2 sausage patties - 6 slices of cucumbers
        Snack - cheese stick
        Lunch - 2 thighs - 2 cups of green salad - 2 caps of Italian dressing
        Snack - cheese stick
        Dinner - 3 wing - 2 cups green salad - 2 tbl Ranch dressing
        Snack - cheese stick - 1 turkey weiner

        About 92 oz. of water

        What did I do wrong.
