  • Claudia the newbie!

    Hello everyone...my name is Claudia...this is my first day on atkins. I was on Atkins a few years back, and lost some weight. Now I want to feel good about my self again. These past few weeks I've been sorta depressed...but I've decided to continue and get back on track. I had lost like 10 kgs a few months back.
    I live in Japan....the country of the skinny people who eat a lot of fried foods!! On september a friend came over to visit and I lost control of my weight. That's why I got depressed...but I decided to return to the dieting.

    On this first day...Im feeling really great...the sad depression is sorta gone!
    I guess it helps to be in control instead of having the food controlling me!

    Anyway...Im happy to be here....

              Hello Claudia! Welcome to the board. There seems to be many people living in Japan signing on to ADBB lately! I hope you can connect with some of them.

              Best of luck to you! In addition to the fried foods, I'm sure you can also find good veggies and lots of fish too!
