hi everybody. i just signed up yesterday. this will be my second time trying Atkins. i thought I did well last time, but i've since gained all my weight plus some more. its also been about 5 years, alot has changed for me. i am a dad of 2 boys now, and i'm almost 30 (end of this month). i want to spend many more years having fun with my boys. i was going to wait and start new years, but i can't wait any longer, i feel so unhealthy. i don't know my exact weight now, but i have a digital scale at home, and it says "error" when I step up. this time around my goal is to lose the weight again, and hopefully make it to a successful phase 3 & 4.

You sounds like you have plenty of motivation there. The rest is just food. Great that you start now - you will be a new you by the time the new year come already.

Re: intro

Warm welcome to you Isey and congratulations on not waiting until New Year! Just think how great you'll feel when you get through the holidays slimmer and healthier rather than the opposite!!
Don't worry... you'll still be able to have a great time over all the festivities. It's just a question of planning. You'll get lots of tips and recipes here.
Post lots and ask questions... we're here to help.
