  • Glad to be here

    Hello to All
    I was not aware of this sight and have been doing Atkins since August '08 with little support. As a matter of fact, other than my husband no one really knows how I am losing the weight. So you can imagine how great it feels to find you guys - family!!!
    I turned 60 in December and decided if 60 is the new 40 I better be in good health. Please excuse my lack of PC skills but I'll be up and running in no time.
    It's so helpful to read the posts and see the concern and care that you'all share.
    I'm here for the long run so thanks for this support.

        Hi, MightyMe

        Cute name!

        I am so glad that you've found us. It's amazing how much a good support system can help. I didn't have it on my first go-round with Atkins, but have had it since the beginning of my re-start in Feb of 2007. What a difference it has made!

        Don't worry, my PC skills are very minimal, too. You'll do fine. If you haven't read this yet, give it a look: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...-new-read.html It has good information, including some links that will help you on your journey.

        Good luck!

          Welcome, MightyMe! Glad you found us at long last!

          It should be a lot easier now that you have a support system to cheer the good times and encourage you through the bad times!

            Welcome from me also !!

            Yep, you found the best site out there for Atkins support,
            I feel myself very lucky to have found it myself.

            Super people here, I saw another Atkins forum and people
            were fighting and rude, and that just does not happen here.

            Keep it up and check out a lot of the "Sticky Notes"
            tons of great information.
