Default Hi Heather!

Welcome

We lived in St Louis in the 60's. Now living in Southeast Mo.

It sounds like you are doing well on Atkins. There are some really nice and helpful people here to keep you encouraged. I've also found some good tips here answers to lots of good questions.

Keep up the good work.

I live in St. Charles right now, but moving to Ferguson in April. I'd be happy to talk to you. I've been on Atkins since November 27, yep, the day before Thanksgiving. I've lost (as of February 27, I only weigh one time a month) 20.5 lbs and am very happy with that.

Have you been to Nature's Way Health Food Store and gotten any of the Atkin's products? They have saved me many days.

You can e-mail me at ea-taschwer~charter.net and I'd be happy to have a close by Atkin's friend.

I'm in St. Peters! freydis at yahoo dot com is one way to reach me. Also, you might look into meeting through meetup.com - a free service for like-minded groups. They organize monthly meetings and all we have to do is sign up and show up.

Vicky,
I'm North of KC on the Kansas side, in Atchison, KS, just 22 miles North of Leavenworth, your old hometown..... I see that you go in to KC for your low carb "supplies"... Where do you go??? I have to travel a hour and 20 minutes to 95th street to goto a health food store down there.....

Cool!! I've been to Atchison many times. Used to go to a bar called The Warf (or something like that) back in the mid 80's.
Is it Emerald Forest on 95th? That place is awesome for low carb stuff. I just went there on Saturday myself.....I never spend under $50 LOL. This time I got 2 of those Robbins Nest bakeries cake rolls!! I just cant find them where I live.
