    New Here

    Hello Everyone,

    I'm new here and on day one of induction. I did Atkins a few years ago with great results. I don't know why I went back to a high carb, low fat diet. It really doesn't work for me. I think what I need is will power and encouragement and I hope to find that here.

    Thanks for having me here!

      Welcome back. Glad you had good results the first time so you know that Atkins works when you are doing it, but it isn't magic so it doesn't work when you quit doing it. There is plenty of motivaton, advice, friendship and encouragment here to support you as you return to a healthy way of life/eating. Congratulations on making the decision to come back. Keep us posted on your success!!!

          Welcome to the site, and just remember to keep drinking your water. If you feel like cravings are driving you mad, distract yourself with something else like reading this site. Don't laugh it worked for me. I wish you the best and am glad that you joined our virtual Atkineer family.

                      Thank you to everyone for all of the encouragement. I'm doing good so far but took my measurements and they are worse sounding than my weight. Yikes!

                      I had one of my Grand-daughters with me for a few days so couldn't linger and read in here as much as I'd like. I have her here fairly often and teaching her to ride her bicycle is helping me to get more exercise than just the treadmill.

                      Thanks Again!
