Hello all,
Uh, this would be day one for me, I already started a post in another forum w/a few question, I'm following Atkins. Hey! BTW I just finished lunch, I can glop all the mayo I want in there, right?? Oh, and the cream(the rich, heavy stuff) I can pour that in huh??

So far, I'm happy, happy, happy, steak and salad for dinner.

I love you Atkins!!!!

Ok, well, sorry, this is supposed to be intros, my real name is Cheryl, but somebody stole it, so Cherlyn(1st and mid combo) will have to suffice, I am on my second round of Atkins, it's been about 20 years since I did it before, I'm 40+?, I did well then listened to the critics, my bad! Atkins has since been proven right, I've seen the light. ok, well, that's about it for now, but, hey, when that candy cravin' starts.... I'll need all the help I can get.....thanks for listening to me ramble

PS: Who's the administrator, Tamarind?? This is a really nice forum!!! I'm a tech idiot, so as soon as I learn my way around, I'm sure I'll find all the site has to offer, til then ta ta!!!

hi Cheryl,

LOL - yes you can dollop on the mayo and cream...but remember they do have some carbs, so you will have to count those

Welcome to the site, you are right - this is a great place and Wa'il (Tamarian) is our hero

Hi again,

LOL, I do love this site! I've got to really doing some exploring here.

Well, it's been tough, mainly because of work, the lunchroom, candy sales, cookies, I guess I should tell you that I'm an elementary school librarian, a job I love, but don't think for a moment it's free of temptation, we don't have time to go anywhere, so it's the lunchroom. I've lost 3 lbs, it was 4, but nope, back to 3 this morning. I remember the hardest part now, that would be breakfast, eggs get boring. Has anybody tried that 2 gram cereal yet?

Well, it's not coming off like my 20s, but I have faith in Atkins, I'll get there. I probably would've lost more, but I really missed all the good fat stuff, and probably over-indulged the first few days, I'm not as bad now. should start losing more.

I've takin a real liking to those buffalo wings, dipped in ranch dressing, they have 2 carbs and oh, are they good! Also, I love spice the hotter the better, so I got some of the chinese chili sauce~ 1 carb, to put on my cheese strips or the wings sometimes, hope that's not slowing me down.

Well I'm hanging in there, I catch alot of flack at work, Atkins isn't healthy, blah blah, I know better, his diet works, so guess I'll have to prove it to them

Thanks for responding, you guys are very inspiring!
