Talking I Just HAVE To Join in!

Hello Everyone!

My name is Pam and I am in my second week of induction and loving every minute! I lost 15 lbs. the first week and have been reading this board like a maniac. I'm not one to post on chat boards, but I just can't stand missing out on all this fun!

I want to thank ALL of you who take the time to post here. I'm sure you all remember what it was like to be new to this - your wisdom is so appreciated! Well... wish me luck! Its sure to be a bumpy ride!

Congratulations on your weight loss! It is inspiring to me to read about success like yours. I too have lost a lot of weight only having been on Atkins for 3 weeks (27lbs). Take care and happy low carbing!

Talking still going strong!

Hi Pam.......isn't it great to have all this support from others who are going thru the same things you and I are going thru. I don't think I would be this enthusiastic if I didn't have this forum to read! I have had all my questions answered, and gained some knowledge I didn't know I needed........lol
Have a great day! Missy

The rain is supposed to clear out of here (Maine), and get into the 50's today. Hopefully some of this d*mn snow will melt!
