I'm new and need help!

[maplesix]

Hi! I'm Katherine. I'm new to the forum and new to the Adkins diet. I'm horrible at dieting, I keep falling off the bandwagon. So I've joined this forum to find support to keep at it! I hope to make some friends here!

Hi Katherine,

I am new here too (Day 2) so welcome to another newbie. I have quickly realized this isn't a diet though...it is a way of life. I think to be successful on Atkins, you have to live it for life. Welcome aboard!

Re: I'm new and need help!

Thank you, Scooterjam and Lindseyd! I will check out those threads. I have tried Fitday before, but I like EvenHealth better. It's prettier! LOL. I got my ticker from there. Thanks for the welcome, I will try to jump right in!

Hi Maplestix,

Welcome to ADBB. I love that ticker! I keep thinking I should get a new one - but then again I'm kind of attached to the snail now

Best of luck - come and tell us if you need motivation and feel like you're going to quit!

Re: I'm new and need help!

The best thing about the tickers on evenhealth is that you don't have to go make a new one every time you lose a little weight! It's a calorie counting site, so when you add a new weight to your weight log, it automatically changes your ticker. I love it!

Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome! I can already tell I'm gonna like it here!

Re: I'm new and need help!

Excellent. I will add Evenhealth.com to my list of tried sites for newbies!

Thank you so much!!
