Hello everyone!
My name is Sandra and I am very happy to have found this site. I have been reading it for a few days and have found a lot of helpful information. I have tried Atkins before but never really stuck to it. I found myself getting very bored with the acceptable food list. I'm not a cook in any way so I found it really difficult to invent approved recipes. I'm happy to see that there are many simple recipes on here that I can try. Ideally I hope to lose 110 pounds. I just had another baby (well a year ago) and am having the hardest time trying to lose all of the weight. I've lost big before but somehow this time around it's a little bit harder. I definately think a low carb/high protein plan is the way. So I'm vowing to give it my best shot. Wish you all success in your own weight loss goals. If there's anybody out there wanting to lose the same kind of weight and at the same time looking for an email weight loss buddy...then I'm definately available. All the best!!!

Re: Hello everyone!
Hi there Sandra, nice to meet you! Good to have you with us here at ADBB.
Good to hear you mean to give Atkins your best shot. We'll help you!
If you find that the induction food list gets boring quickly for you, I'd advise you make the move to the OWL phase (ongoing weight loss) as soon as you've finished the two week induction. The extra food choices will be very welcome and you certainly do still get to lose weight on OWL... some people even lose faster (particularly on the low rungs).
Here's an awesome link for you:

Happy losing!Before and after:
