  • New to Atkins

    Hello everyone. I live in Spring, Texas and began doing Atkins with my fiance sometime around June 8 and have lost about 14 lbs. My fiance started about 10 day ago and has already lost 16 lbs. I am getting a little discouraged because I have not lost in about a week, but will be sticking to it. I enjoy reading everyones post, it really gets me through the day.

    :wave Hi! Welcome to ADBB! Don't get discouraged if you don't see the scale move. Make friends with your tape measure. Also remember to give your body time to adjust. It will come off...don't worry and just enjoy this way of life! And as a little side note...don't compare your loss with your fiance...men lose faster and easier than we do. Not fair...I know. I hope you like it here and decide to stick around. If you have any questions don't hesistate to ask. Sometimes we may be slow to respond or sometimes it may get lost in the mix. If that happens, just bump it up please. There are lots of caring and knowledgeable people here to help you on your journey to a healthier you! :hug
