    Just joined

    Hello. My name is Elen and I am writing to introduce myself. I started Atkins one week ago and have lost a little over 4 pounds. I know the diet works, because about 2 years ago, I lost 50 pounds and looked and felt great. Unfortunately, I fell off the wagon and gained it all back. This time, I really am feeling confident about losing it all and KEEPING IT OFF...and I think this site will be a big help to that end. I have been reading posts and getting encouragement from everyone's stories here. In short, I'm happy to be here.

    Welcome
    Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
    he said, 'Don't count calories.'

    Began Atkins March 04 at 260lb, reduced to 203lb by April 07 and maintained.
