    Is this where I introduce myself?

    There are a lot of forums here, and I'm not yet certain which way I'm going. Which is pretty standard for me.

    I've been lurking on the Second Time Around forums for about a week, and dove in and started posting today. I lost 30 pounds with Atkins a little more than two years ago, and then got pregnant. While pregnant, I ate everything that wasn't tied down or moving. I lost 30 of the 65 pounds I gained, but am back up 5 so I have 40 to lose. Does that make sense? I hate word problems.

    I am on day two of Induction and hating my life right now. It's not even that I want a piece of pie. I just want two more ounces of cream, ya know? Anyway, I am very happy to be here, have read many wonderful and interesting things so far, and already have about ten recipes I'd like to try - and I hate cooking!

    Look forward to figuring my way around and talking to you all in the coming months.

        Welcome to our family, Tracy.

        I am sure with all the support and advice here you are on your way to becoming a big loser
        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!



        Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

          Welcome (Men don't say much!)
          Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
          he said, 'Don't count calories.'
