Default Re: Brand New to Atkins--a few concerns

hi and welcome to the board. Each person is different in how they loose but you will loose with this WOE. I swear I've eaten better in the the 5 days I've been doing this and I've lost 7 pounds as of this morning...so whatever it is that makes it work I'm so happy to have found this WOE and all the people here.

If you don't like meat try eating cheese, if you need help figuring out what to eat there are plenty of websites (Linda's, Shiela's, etc) with wonderful suggestions (and Linda's has pictures of nearly every dish she made). I've spent a few hours looking at recipes and saving them so I could make them later. I've made a few this week and just can't believe how much FLAVOR we have at our fingertips. I don't ever remember a diet that had flavor...but then...this isn't a diet...it's a way of life! Big difference.

You'll do fine. Keep with it each and everyday. Join a few challenges and post as often as you can. If you have questions you'll find more people willing to help you than you can imagine!
