Hello there Crone!

I too feel liberated here at TDC. With the exception of my mother, noone but you all know how much I weigh. I'm not sure why I'm so secretive about it but needless to say, I steer clear of that one! But here, you feel so at ease. I know that there isn't one struggle or triumph that someone here hasn't experienced and that is comforting. When someone loses, I can relate to the feeling of excitement, and when someone slips, I know how that feels as well...having lost and regained myself. This is my first time doing Atkins and I feel wonderful. I finally found a way of eating that works for me.

Glad your hubby is benifiting as well. I have a niece I'm trying to recruit but she is not ready to do any sort of diet. I know from experience you certainly can't force someone to make a change like this unless they are ready, right? Well, anyhoo...welcome and GOOD LUCK!!
