Welcome to the forum! Be sure and check out the Second Time Around Club, as well as the Century club for lots of great support and advice. ADBB is a great place for support and motivation!

Welcome aboard ryann!!!
I had the same problem when i first started atkins, absolutely alone and nobody to share my experience with, to help me out with my doubts, to cheer me up when feeling down about my WOE, to kick my *** when cheating, to pick me up when falling off the wagon!!!!
But then I joined and found all of the above in once!!! Support, encouragement, commitment, motivation and above all a great bunch of buddy friend to walk along with!
You came in the right place ryann, much more than a board intendend as a collection of people, ADBB is a wonderful process of give and take!
Hang in here as often as you can and you will feel part of a family which is ready to give all the support and motivation you need. Forget being alone, at ADBB we come together, share together and succeed together!
Happy lowcarbing!

Hi Ryann, wecome to and back to Atkins.

This is the place for support and motivation! There are a lot of people here that have been through (or going through) the weight loss journey!

See you around the board!

Hi, I have all the same problems that you do. I have not started yet and I also don't have anyone to help me get and stay motivated so maybe we can get to get together and motivated eachother and make small goals and stay in touch. Let's do it together! there are so many people that have done it and we can do it too. Let's start and have fun doing it and by the summer enjoy our new bodies.

Welcome Ryann, I can tell you that on this board its really hard not to be motivated. I was at first and everyone is so wonderful on here and supportive. i know how you feel no one else in my family is on this WOE like me but this board is great just like a second family. If ya need anything just give us a holler and someone will help.
