Default Hi all! New here....

Hi all...My name is Lynn and I have been lurking around here for a little over a week or so now. I have enjoyed reading the posts and have picked up many tips here!

Ok, I know that *technically* I am no longer needing to lose 100lbs, but, when I first started Atkins back in April, I was 249, so that *was* triple digits then....so can I still join in?? I am now going by my weight when I restarted Atkins on Oct 20th.

Anyway.....

I am married, mother of 2, and I just recently (last Tuesdey) was promoted to Assistant Quality Manager at my place of employment. We also have 3 boxer dogs and I help with Boxer rescue here in North Carolina.

I have had a lot on my plate these past few weeks, as I also go to school part-time, and haven't had time to exercise and such as I should, but still have been losing around 1-3 lbs a week. I like that!! That is one of the things that I love about this WOL!

I look forward to being a part of this group and gettin rid of this weight forever!

Thank you for reading my rambling *grin*

Lynn

Hi Lynn, of course you are welcome here. For myself and many others this woe has given us control over the foods we choose to eat and hope for the future.

Hey Lynn,

Welcome to the TDC boards. I'm not technically needing to lose 100 pounds vs. my goal right now either, but the issues are still the same. Pile in - there's lots of good things to read and good people to know here.

Hello Lynn!

Welcome to the forum and to the Triple Digits Club! There's so much great information to learn from here...and an amazingly supportive community to share your experiences with!

BTW, I have two Boston Terriers. Boxers are beautiful too. There is one in my neighborhood that we see everyday.

Good luck to you on your LC journey!

Donald
