Smile New Member Just Starting Atkins Diet.

Hello everyone, I am Voluptuous and I am a new member to this site. I am just starting the Atkins diet. After 4 unsuccessful starts I can now proudly say that I am on day number 4 and doing good. Most of my cravings for sweets have vanished. I used my first keto stix and was glad to see a color change especially this early.
I am also looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Blessings/Volupt.

Default Hi Voluptuous

Welcome to the forum and good for you with your early success on Atkins. IMHO the ketostix are a nice thing to have but please don't live and breathe by them - they don't always paint an accurate picture.

Thank all of you for making me feel so welcome. Now I am never going to leave. LOL Anyway..things are still going pretty good here. I have lost most of my cravings for sweets and I have a bit more energy. I also weighed in and saw a 10lb. loss. That is probably water, but it is all good. I am gonna do this!
