    Just Started My New Way Of Life

    Hello Everyone,

    My name is Debby and I started Atkins (again) 3 days ago and have already lost 2 lbs. I did Atkins a few months ago and stopped because I got scared of all the fat in the diet. The truth was that I felt great while I was doing the Atkins diet (no stomach problems) and I had a lot of energy. I tried doing Slimfast and the You On A Diet ...blah...blah...blah and I never felt great and was alway dealing with a bloated stomach. I decided to give Atkins another try and for the last two days I have felt darn good. I am determined to stick with it this time and loose the baby weight I gained 12 years ago. It is time to say bye-bye to it.
