    Another New one.

    hey all, well i guess i'll start of by saying i'm 180 pounds.. 195 is the biggest i've ever been. my gw is 145. three years ago when i met my husband we went out to eat all the time and our fun became EATING. so i gained a lot of weight. i'm ready to loose it to be happy with myself again! so i've decided to go atkins. any tips for me? i'm 23 years old 5'8. this is a big forum, i've been looking for something like this. and also, where did you guys get those neat things that say how much you weight lol GL everyone!

    Hi SilencedMind,

    Welcome to ADBB This is such a good place for encouragement, support and ideas

    I know exactly what you mean about your fun being eating - me and my BF were like that for a while. You can still enjoy food a great deal with this WOE, more than any other 'diet' I'd say.

    I'd recommend the FAQ section - especially 40 tips for newbies and exercise challenges are also great fun.

    Oh, and the weight graphics come from: (amongst other places) www.tickerfactory.com

        Welcome SilencedMind! Good to have you join us here. You'll find it a fantastic place for good advice about the Atkins lifestyle and for support and encouragement.

        My advice would be to try to do as clean an induction as you can. It really pays dividends in the long run. Based on your (clean) induction losses you'll be able to get an idea of your Critical Carb Level for Losing (CCLL) and of your metabolic resistence to weight loss, once you hit the Ongoing Weight Loss phase. Both important things to find out, if longterm success is your goal.

        Ask any questions you might have. We're here to back you to the hilt!
        Before and after:
