Hi Everyone!

[eliza24]

I am starting Atkins tomorrow...I have thought about it in the past, and have even registered at this board, but I am serious this time! There are far too many cute summer dresses and clothes in stores now not to be motivated!

Hi Eliza,

Welcome. There is no time like the present! Did you get the book, Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution edition 2002. Since you are serious about losing the weight, it will provide you with all the correct rules and guidelines for following the WOE.

The ADBB is the best place for support and encouragement as you begin your journey to get healthy. Make sure you look at the before/after photos of other members and read their stories in the Loser's Lounge. These are all people who are making it happen. It will give you lots of inspiration. Best wishes. You can do it. Keep us posted on your success!
