    New to ADBB but not atkins.

    Hi,

    I'm Jo, i'm from Berkshire, England. I have tried the atkins diet before, but recieved a hard time from my friend about it (it's dangerous, you feel tired all the time, your teeth go yellow...blah blah blah) so they guilted me out of it.
    But now i'm doing it again, once they see how awesome i look they'll regret what they said. tehe
    I'm 20 5'2'' and 10 1/2 stone (technically overweight) for someone of my height i should be 7st - 10st so im not too bad, i just need a little push and i should be fine.
    I plan to be on here alot so you'll here alot from me!

    Thanks for reading

    Jo

      Hiya Jo! Welcome aboard. Good to have you with us... and good too that you decided to re-commit to Atkins. You won't regret it 'cos we're ever so good at giving those 'little pushes'!

      Atkins makes your teeth yellow??? Wow! I thought I'd heard 'em all, but that's a new one on me!

      Happy losing!

        Hi JoJo! Welcome to the board. I've seen your name online and I think it's a very cute name, I like saying it!

        You need to ignore the people who tell you negative things about this eating plan! Tell them to read the book so they can understand the science behind it and why it works! Or, just carry on and let them be impressed with your weight loss!

        Best of luck to you!
