Hi Everyone

[BusyDad]

:wave
My Name is Allen and I am 3 days into the induction diet. I tried Atkins before and easily lost 25 pounds. I have been off the diet for a while and have gained 4o lbs since. I am 48 yrs old, 5'9" tall, and I currently weigh 270 lbs. My goal is to lose 70 lbs and to change my life so that I can keep it off. I was really happy to find the ADBB and read all the posts about the Atkins diet. It is going to be a big help in reaching my goal.

By the way I had a great day today sticking to the low carb plan.

Good luck everyone

Welcome Allen to ADBB.

This WOE has transformed so many other people and given their life back that I am sure you too will get your wish. Being an Atkineer veteran, you already know all the rules and lists, but if you have questions, you can always ask them in the forums. This time you'll also have the benefit of all the great cooks and meal ideas to ward off getting bored.

Congratulations on making the decision to start the diet again.
