  • Hi there! I'm new to the bulletin board..

    Hi everyone!

    It is so nice to see such a supportive group of people. I have been reading posts on this board for a few days and finally decided to join in.

    This is my third day of induction and things are already going well. I do feel the energy change, and its quite nice! I decided to try Atkins because I hit my absolute heaviest weight ever recently and it just wore me out to keep thinking about my weight everyday. I'm tired of feeling embarrassed when I go out in public.

    So far I have had hard boiled eggs, tuna, chicken caesar salad and steak. Does anyone have any other induction food suggestions to keep it interesing? I was also wondering how to add one of those tickers....I found the website, but I don't know what to do once I make it....do I pase the code into my signature?

    I'm happy to join and I look forward to my long journey -AMW

    Hi and Welcome to the board. The site for Linda's Low Carb Receipes has helped me alot (http://users3.ev1.net/~FONTLADY/recipes.html ). Many of the receipes are suitable for induction.

    I'd like to know how to add the ticker too!

                    To add a ticker, go to the site, right click the stickie you want, hit copy, then go to edit signature in your CP User, put the cursor where you want the sticker, and then right click and hit copy...then and this is the important part, hit the button at the bottom of the signature that says to save changes...then open again, and it should be there..
                    there is also a FAQ forum where all of this is explained.

                      Welcome to our ADBB family
                      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



                      Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

                        You can also just copy and paste the code for bulletin boards--it should start and end IMG. Copy it from the ticker website, and paste into your signature.

                        I've made tickers at choosing2lose.com (but I think they're tickers are down?) and thetickerfactory.com.
