Hello to all you wonderful people! I happened on this website by accident and am so happy I found you! Reading some of the posts I see that most of you are young Moms, so my question is will you let an "Older" Mom join? LOL

I am 53 and started Atkins in April 2003. I did really great the first 2 months and lost 19 pounds. I was at a standstill to get any more weight of so I re-read the Atkins book and realized that I was so excited about losing weight I did not take any vitamin supplements. I started them in June and took off another 10 pounds. Then the test came along! I went on vacation and did not stay on the diet. So I have now gained back some of the weight I lost and on Monday went back on the diet again. The good news is that I an still less that I was when I first started!

I wish you all the best in your weight-loss.
