    Hello Everyone!

    I am so excited to find this forum! This is my second time on Atkins and the first time I was on it, there were a lot of people doing the same thing. This time around, I felt like I was the only one in the universe until I found this forum! I am very glad to know there are others like me! It's encouraging!

    I started 4/21/08 so that makes this day 7. We are doing a Biggest Loser game at work, so I'm excited to see how this plan will stack up against those on WW or a low-fat plan. All I know is WW will not work for me (too much rope with which to hang myself) and I'm constantly hungry on a low-fat diet.

    I don't really remember how I felt last time I was on Atkins, but by day 4 this time, I actually felt more energetic than I have in months if not years. Thanks to y'all, I've also found fitday.com and that's been wonderful!

    Anyway, I'm glad to be here!

    Welcome to the board, we are glad you are here as well.

    What I know:
    1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
    2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
    3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
    4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

              I tried a variation of one of the pumpkin recipes yesterday! I am really going to make an attempt to vary my diet. I seem to have almost the same thing every day. The pumpkin was yummy. I added some cinnamon.
