Hi

I have "dieted" all my life and kept fairly constant weight until I hit my 50's and then, boy it became a real drudge. 2011 is my year to get to target weight once and for all. I know Atkins suits me better than most diets and I have just started my regime today. I would love a buddy in the Uk to help me through - especially in the evenings when I could eat for England! :)

I have tried to start a new regime on 1st Jan and failed miserably so I thought I would start earlier this time. Of course, I will enjoy Christmas and thankfully I am not a sweet lover so I should be OK with turkey, meats, veg etc. Gotta give it a go!

Hi! It is just a matter of mind set. If you don't like the sweets that much it should me great.

Thanks for all the support so far. Just going out in the snow to buy some smoked salmon (little luxury for Christmas!) - good offer in Co-op and Tesco - and freeze some for the New Year. I really love Irish coffee - would this be ok with a little brandy and splenda with double cream?
