  • Hello! I'm New, Too!

    hi all-

    i have been lurking for a while, soaking up the great stuff on here. today is day 1 of induction for me and i am so excited. i have been planning for a while to start back on atkins with serious commitment. i did it a couple of years ago and had fairly good success, but didn't really stick with it. of course, i am now more than a few lbs. heavier, and looking to get back into good health and shape. and hoping to get pregnant, too!

    kind regards-
    renee

    Lulubell hello! Welcome to the board!

    Glad you decided to come back to Atkins. You'll find lots of support and helpful advice here at ADBB. Have you read the book? We go by DANDR 2002 edition here, which was the last one Dr. A wrote. Understanding the science behind this way of eating is an enormous help.

    Feel free to ask any questions you have. There's always someone around to answer and offer support.

    Happy losing!

      thank you sally! i just re-read the DANDR 2002 in the last 2 days in prep for today and beyond. the book is so inspiring and a filled with good info. i'm just about to have some chix breast and salad for lunch - hopefully that will mitigate the slight headache i have now.
