 Re: Hello, Carrie Here Hi Carrie, This is definately the place for support of all kinds! People here are used to the nay-sayers! If you have had success with Atkins before, then you know the ropes. Good luck with it all and see you around the board  |

| Re: Hello, Carrie Here Welcome Back!! People are dorks. It's really nobody's business besides your own what you do or don't eat. And it's not that you're not eating carbs, you're just replacing unhealthy ones (like over processed food items) with healthy ones (like veggies).

| Re: Hello, Carrie Here Welcome to ADBB Carrie! This is a great board for tips, inspiration and activities (exercise challenges, journals etc.) Don't worry about the Atkins critics... there's a wealth of information out there to support this way of eating and that shows how healthy it is. Very soon it'll be your own body that will be telling you how good for you this way of eating is! Happy low carbing.

| Re: Hello, Carrie Here Welcome Carrie! Atkins works and I know that personally. I lost over 67 lbs and then fell off the wagon due to many many personal problems. I went back to old habits and ended up gaining alot of weight. Atkins is the only plan that has ever worked for me - a plan I liked and enjoyed. I have always hated weight watchers or counting calories. That's just not for me. Don't let these people telling you that you shouldn't count carbs keep you from the plan. The plan works. I have found it better in some cases to just tell peole I'm watching what I'm eating. They don't have to know the specifics. I'm just so happy you are back. I'm back too and I feel great. It's the first time in months that I have felt so good and felt like I can lose this weight. You can too!!!!!

I stopped when I got pregnant and never went back. Now 7 years, 2 kids and many pounds later I am back.
Whenever I am called to explain why I am not eating carbs the response I get is a lecture on how dangerous it is. I am hoping that I can get support here.
