      Welcome James!

      Great idea to start a journal to keep track of your progress. Feel free to join a challenge or two...it's a great way to meet people & it is also a great motivator. Make sure you take your measurements in order to keep track of inches lost. Photos are also a great way to keep track of your progress.

        Welcome, James. You already know Atkins works for you -- this place can really make the difference in keeping you on track, if you take advantage of all it has to offer.

        Not sure when you last lost on Atkins, but we follow the 2002 edition of Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution. If you followed an older version, you might find a few things have changed, so check it out.

        Check out the Second Time Around Club: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...splay.php?f=82.

        Glad to hear you are starting a journal. I look forward to hearing about your progress. Best of luck!

          Hi, James

          Welcome to ADBB!

          I see that you have been welcomed by a few of the fine folks here... they've given you some great advice!

          I'm a second-timer, too, and want to assure you that it can be even better this time around. Stick close to the board, and post often. Don't hesitate to ask questions, because there is always someone around who will be happy to help.

          Hey, when you're ready to do so, how about you put a few stats in your siggie, so we can know a little bit more about you. And it will help us, help you, if you ever have any questions. You do that by going to the blue bar at the top, and click on "Quick Links". Then you click on "Edit Signature", and add whatever info you wish. It would be great if you could list your height, starting weight, current weight, and goal weight.

          I'm excited for you, James! This is the beginning of your new journey to health, and a slimmer body. Good luck!

            Welcome James. I love the title of your thread. Just the other day, I finally admitted that I'm a stress eater. And I thought about what people say at AA meetings and repeated it myself concerning weight: "My name is Retta and I'm a stress eater". As they say, admitting there's a problem is the 1st step to recovery.

            Happy Losing!!
