    Re-starting Atkins

    Hi Everyone!
    I am not new to the Atkins diet, but I am new to these forums. I am usually a pretty shy person, but I am putting myself out there now. I am starting a 6 week Atkins challenge for myself. Not, because I don't have much to lose, but because I need to make short term goals and complete them! I have done well in the past with Atkins and that coupled with the fact that I will be turining 30 is enough to motivate me. I hope I will get support and advice on this forum. Also, if you care to follow me through the challenge, I started a blog:

    The Atkins Challenge

    Thanks!

      Welcome to the ADBB!

      I was shy too when I joined this board but look at me now! I've been here over 2 years!

      That's a good idea, starting a challenge. They are what keep me going!

          Good luck to you on your personal challenge. Remember: Eat foods on the acceptable food list, exercise, take a no-iron vitamin and drink a minimum of 64 ounces of pure water. Check Linda's recipe site – wonderful recipes that will keep you from eating the same thing over and over -- http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/menus.html.

            Thanks Everyone!

            Speaking of vitamins, is it okay to take the GNC ultra mega women's vitamin? It has all kinds of extracts from fruit and veggies but I am not sure if that will impact blood sugar?

              Does it have iron?

                  Dr. Atkins does say we should take a multi without iron, unless you have different iron needs.

                  Also, I bet you're spending more $$ on the GNC than you need to, but that's a different issue!

                    Hi Almost, just finished your blog and signed up as a follower. Thats awesome and I love it.
                    You can be shy here, but since no one knows you, you can also be just the opposite.
                    Glad you joined and welcome.
