Hi, my name is suzy and I had been on aktins a year ago and was very successful. Unfortunately I never read the maintenance part of the book thus gaining all and more weight. I have now read the entire 2002 atkins book and have chosen this as a way of life now and am doing very well.I have been on atkins this time for 11 days now and have lost 18lbs which I am happy about. I have many questions that I hope will be answered here. I have so far enjoyed what I have seen. Thanks

If your question can't be answered here, it can't be answered!!!

Welcome to the forum!! You'll love it here and you'll do VERY well with more support than you ever dreamed of!

18 lbs so far!!!??!?!?? You are doing MARVELOUS!!! Congratulations!

Hi Suzy and welcome to this forum.

Looks like you are doing great so far, well done. You might like to think about starting a journal on this site to keep track of your progress. Not only will it serve as a record of how you get on, but will be a place for others to drop in on you and also will give information that can be used to offer you advice.

Every success and look forward to hearing how you are getting on.

Thanks! I am planning on checking the journel out tonite.

I finally got around to doing the journal. I think as long as I can remember to fill it out, it will help. thanks

Hi Suzy and welcome!

This is the best place to be for support! Questions will be answered and you will also be able to help others.

I will pop in on your journal.

wow Suzy...you are doing sooooo great!!

I just wanted to stop in to welcome you and say a huge Congratulations. If you ever get bored of what you're eating just drop by the recipe boards...

Take care...Cin

I have found that this is a great source of support! I am more and more encouraged each time I come on. I am finding the journal seems to help, although I dont seem to write down everything im eating but will try to get better at that...I have really enjoyed the recipe boards. I have tried a few and they have been great.
