    An Introduction

    Hi Everyone!

    Just wanted to quickly introduce myself. I'm from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, am 25 years old, and recently (Oct. 2004) married to the man of my dreams.

    I began the Atkins WOL approximately one month ago, and am still in Induction. I'm trying to make sure I get Induction 'right' before moving onto OWL. Thus far, I've been 150% committed (food, exercise, vitamins), and the word 'cheat' isn't even in my vocabulary. I'm actually surprised and somewhat proud of myself thus far, because I have never been entirely committed or cheat-free on any weight loss program before.

    I can definitely see myself being happy with this WOL forever.

    Anywho, it is nice to meet you all. I'm looking forward to participating!
