Default It is good to be back!!!

Hi my name is Tameka and I have decided to change my life. I lost 30lbs about six years ago and had great success. My mother was diagnosed with diabetes about 8 years ago and earlier this year my twin sisters were diagnosed with the same. I took a long hard look at myself in a two-way mirror and decided to alter my way of life. Today is my second day of induction and I still feel ok. I informed my husband that this road may get bumpy so keep his seatbelt fastened . I know this is a lifelong process and I have promised not to give up anymore. I will need bunches of support and plan to actively encourage others.

Welcome, Tameka and good luck.

Not that you will need luck now that you have found this board. You will are starting out the best you can. This support board has been a lifesaver for me, if it wasnt for ADBB I don't think I would have been able to stick to the diet as well.

Hi Tameka and welcome to ADBB!

Great decision! Getting control of your eating with Atkins is a great way to lose the weight and hopefully avoid diabetes, good for you!!

As for support, well you'll find that everywhere around here. If you haven't explored the whole board yet, you might want to check out the 14 Day Induction Forum or the Second Time Around Club (STAC) and so is the Exercise Challenge forum!

Take care and hope to see you around the board!
