Hello Everyone, My name is Glynis, I have just started on the Low Carb Diet!, It would be nice to make new friends, and hope we could help each other . I have never been on a low carb diet before, so if anyone has any suggestions that would help, i would love to hear from them.

Welcome!

You will find quite a few low carb ideas, just browsing the forums. There is so much information here, that it will probably be a bit overwhelming at first (it was for me).

Have you read any of the low carb diet books? That would be an excellent start. If you do not know which plan is best for you, there is a link in the "Quick Lins" section to the upper right of this message, it is titled "Which low-carb plan is right for me?"

Again, this forum is a great source of information and inspiration. Weclome!

Hi Glynis and welcome to this forum. It is a great place to come for advice, information, support and motivation. Since I joined in February I have found it a great help.

I am also from the UK, working in London and living in Orpington. Have you got the Atkins book? Hopefully you have read it through and are just starting out on induction. You may find the first week rough going in places, but once you get into the second week you should never look back. I'm still at it almost a year later.

There are quite a number of UK people on this forum and one way to meet them is to post in the UK forum, but also to make friends generally it is a good idea to start a journal. See sticky at top of page.

Every success for the future.
