    Hi Everyone- Newbie on board!

    HI!
    Im new to the board, found ADBB via the "Sugarfreeshelia.com" website. What a resource! Quick bit about myself. Im 38yo, single mom in Knoxville,TN. I am a 911 Emergency Dispatcher (19 yrs!!) Needless to say unfortunantly I am a stress-eater and my job keeps me FAT!
    Found Atkins, read the book, used resources found here and VOILA! 14 lbs down in 3 weeks. Im excited to see how far I can take this.... Glad you guys are here..!!

    God Bless
