hi there. I've never been included in an actual 'group' of this sort, so I'm pretty excited. I've heard about the DR. Atkin's diet, but haven't tried it yet. I have been watching what I ate and cut down lots of my carbs, but unfortunately have put some weight back on since the fun of summer started. I need a push and talked to a friend who said to go to the search engine and see what I could. Sounds like I found a good place, so I hope to hear from you soon.

Welcome to the forum Jayne! There are a lot of nooks and crannies loaded with great information. Just click around.

I highly recommend reading a few of the excellent low carb books that are available. With low carbing, knowledge is power!

Jayne,

I am also new to this forum, so welcome fellow newbie! I started Atkins 2 weeks ago yesterday and have lost 8 lbs so far. I think that it would be worth it to you to check out the book - I'll tell you this much: it's the only program of eating that I've ever followed where I'm not hungry! Good luck -

Welcome. You found the best group-well done ! I am new too and have found this group to be incredibly wonderfully helpful. Sorry if I sound over the top here -but it is true. There is heaps of information and the forums are very active and responsive. I really wonder how they do it for no charge.

We're aliens from Planet Low Carb. This is our way of taking over your planet.

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

I surrender !
