    Hello Tims and welcome aboard. Glad you came here to ADBB. You'll find that the longer you eat the Atkins way, the easier it gets. Take it from someone who also grew up in a "carb culture". Where I live, pasta and pizza are the way of life, so when I started I didn't really think I'd be able to make a total lifestyle change. Yet that's what happened! Amazing.
    Now, I hardly miss all those carby "treats". I adore the way I eat and it satisfies me to the full.
    If you hang in there, I'm sure there's every chance that the same will happen to you.

    Keep us posted on how you're getting along. We're with ya!
    Before and after:






    PLEDGING FLIGHTS
    Completed: 1st set of buildings and mountains (Everest,M.Blanc & Kilimanjaro, twice); Tower Masts & Chimneys; More virtual buildings; Challenger's Choice x 2 (volcanos and mountains on Mars). Currently climbing: Mount Snowdon again: 416/475

    Start 10 Jan 2005. Maintenance since Aug. 2005.
    F/56yrs/5'.4"
    SW:77.7 LW:56.5 CW:60.1 (kilos)

      Hi Tims! Welcome to Adbb! I know it's hard when you've had a cultural way of eating for your whole life, but this is an opportunity to change that!

      You might want to start a journal for yourself over at Journal Chats. It's a great place for super support and great conversation. I hope to see you there.
