    Giving this another go!

    HI! I stumbled upon this bulletin board and so far I just love it! So much info and obviously so many supportive members. I have been at Atkins for 5 years on and off. Thruout my journey I have lost 75 pounds. Unfortunatly I have put back on 15 of those pounds. I am only 5'1" so that really shows up nicely.. haha I am looking forward to receiving and giving support. I am also looking forward to finally meeting my goal and making some new diet buddy friends along the way!

              First of all, you are incredibly beautiful. The difference in your two pics is amazing. Secondly, Atkins is absolutely the best thing you can do for your diabetes. Lowering your carb intake will allow your body to better utilize what insulin you do have and will reduce the chances of further pancreas damage. Your sugars will improve as will your energy level. I'm a type 1 on an insulin pump, and this helps me tremendously. Good luck and welcome. If you have any questions, please ask. This is a great resource for anyone at any stage.

                You definately came in the right place Alena! is exactly the answer to what you are after!!! I don't know if you are already confident with the board (at the first glance it may look a bit confusing but it is only because of its richness). You've already made your first step: by posting in the newbie forum you've already received the warm and friendly welcome from some of the members and guess you start feeling part of the family already! Enjoy yourself browsing around the several forums:
                start reading the stickies (they have plenty of information and useful tips), get some inspiration from the Before&After pictures forum,
                join the STAC club to realize that you are not alone in experiencing failure and go back on track
                I see you suffer from type2 diabete: even in this you won't feel alone in here, ADBB has got a special forum for Diabetes and Atkins Low Carbing where you can meet people experiencing your same problems, sharing advices and support!
                Hang in here as often as you can and you won't fail this time around; we will reach goal, all together!
                Happy lowcarbing!
