Hi, everybody...

My name is Jennifer, I'm 30, and from Arkansas. Today is my first day on the Atkins way of eating; and I must say that it's pretty easy for me, being the carnivore I am. lol. I have very little support; so, anyone who would like to give me advice or just to talk, can reach me at: jenniferaclark73~earthlink.net or on Yahoo Instant Messenger, nickname: bankbaybe.. most nights.

I look forward to meeting you all; and if anyone has any good advice for me, it will most certainly be welcome..:P

Welcome aboard Jennifer!

I too am a newbie. Started Atkins on Monday and am just beginning to kick the induction blahs (that is, if my good mood today is not simply a fluke). Lots of support here - cruise the forums, the journals (don't be shy and say hello). Start a journal of your own- it's helpful for venting, keeping track of your diet & exercise. You can also keep track of fats, proteins and carbs by using www.fitday.com. It's super easy.
