Day 1 - Taking My First Step

[DED-C]

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing my first day of Atkins & joining the bulletin board at the same time. I didn't know this resource existed until I Googled "Is mustard okay on Atkins?"... Next thing you know, I was joining. I look for support and advice. I hope to be a resource for you too! Once I get a little more familiar with the program, that is...

Welcome to the Atkins Board.

Glad you found the board and are excited about staring. First of all, Atkins is not a "diet" it's a way of eating over a lifetime. Once you learn how to eat this way you will wonder why you didn't start long before now. A few tips to help get you started: Drink a minimum 64 ounces of pure water daily (nothing added), exercise and take a non-iron multivitamin - these are mandatory with Atkins so start now and get off on the right foot.

Make sure you read the book - it will give you the knowledge you need to get to your goal (2002 Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution [DANDR]), eat only the foods on the acceptable food list and eat a variety of foods and vegetables.

Good luck to you!
