Hey everyone,

Well after pushing losing weight off for a while im finally mentally prepared to now start the Atkins diet here in the next few weeks. Shoot for Janurary 1st. I just got the book today and plan on putting some reading time in to learn how to do the diet.

I have tried many diets in the past and had good success the first time on Herbalife. Though when I started that again I passed out due to lac calories coming in vs what I was burning.

I chose this method after seeing great success with my father, my boss and a friend of a friend.

I plan on coming to these forums alot now especially when I get started. Especially for recipes and such.

What I was wondering though is with reading the book now, do you all have any advice/suggestions with just starting out? Just looking for anything that might make this a little easier from the beginning that maybe you all found out one day and might of said "Damn if only I knew this earlier." Something like that.

TIA all,
Whiteice
