welcome maureen! i'm glad you've found your way to atkins and to us! you'll find in a few days that you'll really lose your craving for all your old carb favourites. keep us posted on your progress!

I'm up to 137 from 132 4 weeks ago - augh! I had my thyroid tested and I'm fine so it's time to try something that is proven to work! My goal is IDEALLY 122 but my REALISTIC goal is 126. That's where I was before kid #2 was conceived. Since then I've really built up body muscle so I'm thinking that w/b a good weight to try for.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU! and congrats on the recent loss!
