Hi I am a newbie!

Hello Yall I am looking forward to making freinds with fellow low carbers here.
I started my diet 3 weeks ago but I was already down a few pounds from doing WW but switched because it just was too hard for me to do. i love Atkins because I never feel hungry. After the intial shock and withdrawls that my body went through the first couple of days I felt great and I had so much energy. i am ready to take on this way of life for good. I had my blood work up done before I started and it was deppressing my Cholesterol was 203 I am going to repeat the test in about a month to see if it comes down eating all these eggs and meat and cheese and pork rinds!!! I have faith in Dr Atkins he said it would. I have been sugar free for 20 days woo hoo no cheating!

Hi, I too am just coming from Weight Watchers. I found I keep playing with the same pounds, up and down. I'm looking to go in the right direction.

Hullo,

I'm new here too. Just started last week and doing better than fine

. I have weight to lose too, but I'm actually doing this for my skin because I have atopic eczema and even thought I have good medication for it, I wanted to try Atkins since I heard it had helped some people with their eczema.
