    I didn't realize how Addictive...

    This board was I haven't been able to get on at work as I have been swamped (even during lunch) and then I get home and hubby is on computer playing games . I really feel like this board is my lifeline to sticking with my goals and am very thankful I found it and all of you

    Okay lunch is over - back to work

      Sorry, but your post has really made me laugh, I have been addicted to this place for 4 years! I dont think either of us are alone!

      Glad you like it here.

      It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




      I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

              OMG me too! I had to literally unhook the internet all day today because I had some work to do and I knew I couldn't resist coming on here!

              But better an ADBB addiction than a carb one

                      Me too - and for the last few days our internet access has been broken and was only fixed this morning!!
                      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!

                          Also an addict but a recently addicted one! While I was typing this my BF came home, saw me on the computer and without even looking said, "How is the board?" I can't help it! It's just so supportive here!

                          I think there are a lot of us! Sometimes when I reply to someone's post they reply back within minutes so they just might be addicted as well!

                              This is my third day on these boards and i've posted a gazillion times....okay 30 or so....but still. It is addicting. And it's nice to know that so many people have faced the issues you face and succeeded! Go ADBB!

                                          I'm also really addicted. There is just so much information on here, and I just want to absorb it all. I only post in a few sections, but I lurk just about every where, lol.
                                          The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast:
                                          the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.

                                                  Hi my names Jammie and I'm an ADBB addict.

                                                  Even though I've only been here a little over 3 weeks...I cant get enough...I've gotta have my fix...LOL.

                                                  It just feels sooooo good seeing everyones progress...

                                                  Last night I was falling asleep, and I was thinking man what would it be like w/out this board??? As I am a 2nd timer...I did it b4 and it was pretty lonely...everyone around you 2nd guessing your woe, and critisizing it...this time its much better...having all of you!!!
