    Hey all,

    My wife and I just started the Atkins program this past weekend. We've been looking for resources for help/information/recipes. So far we're on day 5 of induction and already i've lost 4.5 pounds!

    My goal is to get down to about 169 pounds in about a years time, (August of 2009). The last real diet that tried was Susanne Sommers' Somersizing. While it did work, I fell off the wagon and gained all the weight back and then some. I'm a chemist so the science behind Atkins is mindblowing to me.

    Thanks to everybody that's helped me so far since I've been lurking, and now that I'm a member, I'll be sure to making my own posts here soon!
