  • hi, newbie from ny.

    Hi, two and one half years ago I was all set to do this and then my love of four years fled to another state along with my dog and with ll of the emotional heat...i never really got to give it a wack.
    I am diabetic, 358 lbs...6 ft 0 and miserable with my body and i just want to do this. Glad to be here, purchased a foreman grill and it is wonderful. I'm beginning april 1st.

    nice to meet you all.......I'm Russell :wave

    Hi, Russell :wave , welcome to the board. There are wonderful people here who are very supportive and dedicated to doing Atkins correctly.

    Have you bought and read the Dr. Atkins book? It is so helpful and full of good information that is good to read and reread.

    You might also want to check out www.fitday.com. It has food and activity journaling and loads of terrific info. It's free, too!

    I wish you much success with your new way of life, Russell, and look forward to reading your posts!

            Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
            Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
