hello, I'm new here and I need a buddy... someone I can chat with daily. I have been on atkins since nov,2003 and have lost onlt 12lbs.. someon please help !!

Hi kadle!

I'll be your buddy, if ya want me! I'm not doing atkins this time, but I have before and remember it well. I'm online a lot (WAY too much!), so we can chat every day. My yahoo id is ncchristy74 (see how creative I am?!).

If you haven't yet, start a journal, and keep track of your foods in fitday for a while. That way, you can see any potential problems.

I would love to chat with you but I don't have yahoo.... I can't install it on my system... I do have MSN messenger.
Yes i do keep track of what I eat each day.... but I also hide food !!!

Hey kadle!

I have msn messenger too, I just don't use it much, but I'll try to remember to log on! I'm christy_0_3~hotmail.com

Do you have a webtv? I was wondering because you said you can't install yahoo messenger. I had a webtv, until it became an unfortunate victim of a lightning strike that was WAY too close to my house!

You hide food? Do you mean there's some that you're sneaking that doesn't make it into your calculations? I think everybody's done that before--I do it too--a bite here, a chip there. You have to be careful because it does add up.

Sorry I didnt get back with you yesterday, I didnt get home until late. I would like it very much if we could be buddies, I will add you to my messenger list.
Yes the food I hide is not counted in my daily intake and noone knows about this except for here... I have never told anyone before.

Hey ncchristy, I tried to add you to my messenger list and it say's it not a valid address... try adding me to yours and use my email address from my profile.

Hey kadle! I gotcha on messenger. About sneaking food--do you want to talk about it? We can talk on mesenger or thru email if you don't want to post about it. Like I said, everybody's done it, but it can negate the effects of the diet. Don't beat yourself up about it, but do try to break the habit.
