    Hello From Chile!

    Hi everyone!!!
    I learnt about Atkins just a few weeks ago and really liked the fundamentals so I rushed to buy the book and just finished it on Monday, started yesterday with Induction, so today I just finished my day 2... and I´m so so happy!

    This is my first low carb diet and hopefully the last one I´ll ever do!

    Ok, a little about me, my name is Rafaella, I´m 25 yo and have been overweight for a few years. I´m 5´6 (170 cms) and weigh 75 kgs (165 pds). I´m chilean (sorry for my english) and right now I´m studying for my BAR exam (final law school exam).

    I found this site today and I´m really excited, I hope to give/receive lots of tips and support!

    A little question, is it normal to drop 2.3 kgs (5.1 pds) the first day? I mean, the day before starting I had this huge huge carby dinner and today after 1 day I´m at 72.7 kgs (from 75) I know it´s only water, but is it normal or is my body going crazy?
    Sorry 4 my english, I´m Chilean!
