Default Re: For everybody here: Update your bookmarks!

I checked the results of the poll and it looks like everyone's happy with the new stickies. Everyone except 43% of those who voted, who didn't/don't know what stickies are. So the guys in the 43%, go to the "Atkins Diet 14-day Induction forum": Atkins Diet 14-day Induction - Atkins Diet. You will see a long list of threads. The first threads in that list have titles starting with "Sticky", e.g. "Sticky: Atkins Diet Induction FAQs". Those threads are sticky threads, i.e. threads that contain important information regarding either the diet or the board/forum(s).

Sorry for the late reply. So, I shared your suggestion with the other mods and we are not sure adding the list as a separate sticky in this forum is really necessary. We would expect newbies to open the "Atkins Diet Induction FAQs" thread if they are looking for the acceptable foods list in the "Atkins Diet 14-day Induction" forum because "What foods can I eat?" is a frequently asked question.

That being said, if more members consider that having a separate sticky with the list would be more helpful, we are not completely against changing things. But we'd need more replies here, both pro and con... [Hint for everybody: we want to know what you think! ]

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
