Thanks for the great welcome. I am looking forward to getting to
know everyone.

I started the atkins diet yesterday and I am looking to lose 35lbs b4 July I would realy appreciate any help or advice you could share to keep me on track as I easy get distracted!

My hubbie is doing this with me so hopefully it will be easier than other diets I have tried !!

We have the atkins book and carb counter. Hubbie seem to think it is ok to have alcohol as long as low carb, can this be correct. I am unsure and am not bothered about alcohol for everyday use but I am suppose to be going for a night out with friends. I will eat at home, but will it be OK to drink wine/gin & tonic with them

Thanks for listening and take care!
