  • Another Newbie!!

    Hi! I have to say that I haven't even started the Atkins diet yet, but LOVE this board. I am switching from Weight Watchers to Atkins this weekend. I have lost 58 lbs on Weight Watchers in the past three months, but decided this diet would suit me better. Long story there! I have done Atkins before but it has been a few years. I am excited to start the Induction Phase. Hope to get to meet some of you!!

    Welcome to the wonderful world of ADBB Debi. You have stumbled across one of the most valuable weight loss tools, having found this board.

    Take some time to read the stickies, and ask any questions that you may have.

    Good luck.

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

          Thanks so much for the warm welcome! I can see a difference on this board from other weight loss boards I have visited. I am really excited about it!!! It can be so tough to find the right kind of support. It is so cool seeing all of your success stories and pictures. That is sooooo motivating!

            Welcome Debi! I'm a newbie to ADBB too! And like you I was on WW. I lost 25lbs, gained back 5lbs and decided I need to get back to my Atkins roots! LOL! Was on it about 5 years ago and I'm just so ready again. It really IS a WOE/WOL and I think I've FINALLY realized that! Anyway I'm starting induction on Monday. Maybe we can be inductee buddies?
