| Re: Newbie here <- Grrrrrr..... I still have to buy a scale. The only reason I know my weight now is because of the doctor's office and I'm not going there once a week :P

| Re: Newbie here <- I am so glad you found us! I lost my job in October of last year, and became a stay at home mom. I managed to pack on 19 pounds quicker than you would believe. I couldn't fit into any of my clothes, and I was so depressed! I was terrified of seeing anyone I used to work with, and I felt old and ugly. I finally decided to get off my getting fatter by the minute butt and find a diet I could live with. I googled the Atkins diet and found ADBB. That was early Feb., and on Valentine's Day I joined ADBB and as of TODAY I lost the 19 pounds I put on!!! This way of life works, and you can do it!! Trust me, if I can kick the carbs to the corner, so can you!! My whole diet was bread, candy, cookies, more cookies, and fast food!!! I could eat a whole pizza by my self, no problem. Last night my DH and kids had pizza, and I had fried turnips and green beans with turkey cutlets. Yummy!!!! Please, keep us posted. If you need anything you can PM me anytime. Welcome!!

| Re: Newbie here <- Congratulations on joining the biggest and bestest bunch of losers there is. Yes, You can do it and we are all here to help. You will find all kinds of information, friendships, challenges, motivational stories and advice. Welcome and please keep us posted on your success. Don't forget to take your measurements, read Dr. Atkins new diet revolution, edition 2002 and drink lots of water!! |
Seeing is believing so that is why I have desided to do this diet. As much as it kills me because carbs are my downfall (chips, potatos, breads ect..) 
working out, 
drink lots of water, and find a diet that I will stick too. 
So please don't hesitate to contact me either through here or email me on yahoo.
