    Hey, I'm new to this forum...

    Hi, I just signed up for this forum today. I'm a 48 year old mother of a three year old "change of life baby" boy and find my weight just creeping on up. I've been on the Atkins diet for almost three weeks and I've lost 9 lbs so far. I just love that I don't get hungry and find that so far, it's been easy. I just started walking too, so that I get a little extra boost in the metablolism department.

      Thanks, I just need to connect with people who are doing this since I am surrounded by either skinny people who don't get what I'm doing or overweight people who don't want me to change. I'll feel more comfortable once I get used to navigating everything here, this is a very busy forum!

            Don't read that forum when you're hungry, though!

            I also spend a lot of time reading Journal Chats - I find them inspiring to keep me on my path. And I use mine for vents and such.

              Sort of like free therapy. I'm all for that.
