I have only been on the Atkins since Dec. 27,2001. And I absolutely love this site! I probably wouldn't even stayed on this WOE, if it had not been for this wonderful forum!

I have a question or a comment...........................
Where the stats show on the left side of the screen, would the members be kind enough to put the date that they started the diet? It sure would be nice to know, when you see someone has lost 40 or 50 pounds, how long it took them. 6 months, 1 yr., or 2 yrs.?????????? I have just been very curious about this. So, I have fixed my stats to show when I actully began the Atkins diet. That way you can see how much I have lost within what length of time.

Just a thought..............I just have been curious about this, so I thought I would ask this question.

hi JoAnn,

When a member registers to join our forum, putting in the date they've been LC'ing since is a required field. Registered members can view the complete profile of other registered members by clicking on the little profile icon that appears at the bottom of each of their posts.

Yes, I do realize you can go to the member's profile and find it. I just thought it could be a nice touch to put it right by the plan you are following. It works............as I have done mine. Just makes it more simple to see how long someone has been doing this WOE.
But, if need be, I know to visit the members profile to find that information!
Thanks Doreen!

I agree with you totally...I always want to know when people started also..In fact, I'm gonna edit mine right now...Thanks !! and good luck

Yes, I see some are beginning to put their start dates by their name of the LC diet they are using. Really helps those of us that do appreciate the stats. I realize you can go to the profile to get that info on each and every person, but this is so much nicer!
Right?
Thank you !
