    UK Newbie due to start induction soon!

    I've put on loads of weight since starting university and lost it and put it back on again plus more with final year being what it is. My Dad was on Atkins for a year and lost a significant amount of weight. I thought well great, at least i know this works. I came across this board by chance and i know i need some kind of support to keep myself going. Motivation is a problem for me, so it would be nice to speak to people going through the same thing!

      Hi Katsy and welcome to and Atkins!

      Oh yes, you'll get lot's of support here and we're all going through the same thing in varying degrees!

      If you're getting read to start Induction, check out the 14 Day Induction forum. There's a bunch of great information, sticks and FAQ's to help you get started. Plus people in the same phase, so that's a help all by itself!

      Have fun cruising around the board and becoming familiar with everything! Oh, and if you haven't already, try to pick up a copy of the Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution (2002)!

      See you around the board!

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

          Male 6 ft 3in 60 years old. Married 28 years.
          Began Atkins March 04 at 260lb, reduced to 203lb by April 07 and maintained.

              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!

                                          Ta for all the replies! I've got a copy of the book Sheshy and am building a shopping list at the minute. Amy-Rocks, uni is evil for putting on weight isn't it? It's been up and down all my life but coming to uni has caused the biggest losses and gains .
