Hello Everyone,

My name is Julie and I'm interested in losing weight and healthy living.
Thought I'd join the forum here as I've heard a lot about the atkins diet and am very interested in it.

Re: hello

Welcome to the board!

Did you already start Atkins?

Have you read Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution (2002)?

Re: hello

Welcome to the Atkins Board Julie.

Glad you found the board and are excited about starting the plan. Plan your meals for a fews days so you have everything in your home and you won’t be tempted to eat something not allowed. Drink a minimum 64 ounces of pure water (nothing added), exercise and take a non-iron multivitamin daily.

Look at the challenges to see if there is anything that interests you - start a journal, it's a great place to get everything out in the open, be accountable to yourself - you'll also meet some great people there! http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...journal-chats/. There’s something for everyone here!

Make sure you read the book - it will give you the knowledge you need to get to your goal. If you can’t find a copy of the 2002 Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution (DANDR) locally check online at www.half.com or www.amazon.com. Eat only foods listed on the acceptable food list and eat a variety of foods and vegetables.
