Default My first day...I need a support buddy!!!

Hi all! After a couple of bad starts...I started Atkins today with a vengeance. I have my wedding to prepare for. Anyway, I'm looking for a support buddy to help me out. Someone who has already lost some weight on Atkins. I've tried Atkins a few times already with no luck as far as big losses go. Then again, I haven't stuck to it long enough yet. This time will be different. Anyway, I would love a buddy to help me stay strong. Look forward to hearing from you!!!

Welcome Raz. Your best bet would be to start a journal and let us know on this thread that you have. Then we can check in on you and offer advise when you need it! Congrats on your decision to low carb, you'll do it this time!

Hi Razz,
Welcome. Definitely start a journal and also check out the "Countdowns, Challenges and Buddies" section. You'll definitely find people with similar goals and lots of advice. Here is the link, just click on it and jump into a thread that interests you.... http://forum.lowcarber.org/forumdisplay.php?f=106

Cheers,
Gypsy

Hi Razz,

I'm just starting Atkins too and would love to have a buddy for support. I've been pretty good about exercising and drinking enough water, and I eat right for breakfast and lunch, but have a little trouble sticking to Atkins for dinner. I think being accountable to someone else will help motivate me to stick to the plan.

Maybe we can post our journals here each day? What do you think?

Jodi
