    New to Atkins and feeling better than ever!

    Hi, I'm Luna and couldn't be happier to be here.

    It was so hard for me to make up my mind and begin a low carb program. After lots of research and advice/encouragement from many good friends, I got a hold of DANDR book and began Induction.

    Today is Day 13! So far, I've lost 9.2 pounds and feel great. What's better, I don't have those nasty sugar cravings.

    I hope to hear from many of you!

    BTW, how do I get a ticker to track my progress?

    Thanx!

    Luna

      Re: New to Atkins and feeling better than ever!

      i am new too - been on atkins since 1-02-08 lost about 10 pounds so far - feeling better. I have tried several times to discipline myself enough to stay on atkins for more than 2-3 months. I will be 40 soon and I am ready for the change in my appearane - that so far i have only imagined - i need to prove this to myself that i am in control of me.

      BTW - where do i go to start my journal with pictures? I work full time and have a very demanding family of men. So, I wont be able to spend a lot of time online but i will try to keep in touch with you all. Thanks to all who can keep in touch with me. I need all the encouragment I can get!
