  • Hello New Friends...and some old friends?

    Hello everyone. I've been looking around a bit and this seems like a great place to get encouragement, support and an occasional kick in the toosh when needed.

    My name is Zam, which is shorter than a previous incarnation of me at several other Atkins BB's back in 2002/2003. Brook may or may not remember me.... ?

    This isn't my first time on Atkins, but rather a re-do. The good news is that my weight isn't as high as it was the first time, but a little too close for comfort. I re-read the book and there were a lot of things I thought I already knew that were wrong, and reading the book really lit the fire under me again. A lot of my success last time on Atkins was due to a strong sense of support and community that I found at another site, so I'm looking forward to recreating that feeling this time around.

    I started on October 14th again and am pleased that 12 lbs has already come off after three weeks on Induction.

    I'm also back on the jogging/running bandwagon and look forward to the possibility of competing in 1/2 marathons and perhaps another full marathon while LC'ing.

    Nice to meet all of you!

        Welcome to ADBB, Zam.

        There are quite a few of us in various training programs to run 1/2 or full marathons this winter while low carbing. I'm sure you'll fit right in.
