Thanks all!

Joy, I will have to give Jicama a try.

Misplaced Southerner, I noticed you live in SoCal. I grew up in Orange County. That picture was what I used to look like when I was surfing in Huntington Beach! Just a few years have passed since then and a few pounds. LOL Also, congratulations on your upcoming marriage!

Misplaced Southerner, my Dad was a Tarheel. He was born in Elizbeth City, NC.

I grew up on a surfboard in OC. Learning to surf, I once shot the pier at HB. Solely an accident. I was too close to it when I got up on the board. Only choice I had was to go through it or in up plastered against one of the pylons.

Thanks Sally! BTW, where in Italy do you live? We absolutely adore Italy. Last year we spent some time in Lucca after our cruise let us off in Genoa. I am ready to go back right now. We have spent time before in both Rome and Firenze! I really admire that you can live there, yet stay committed to Atkins. Congratulations on your success! It is truly about choice isn't it?

Hi Don, WOW! You have already made some great friends around here. I hope that will help encourage you to come around the board often!

Joy is the jicama queen, julirama is the daikon radish queen! You should try Daikon too, it's not radishy but sweet and has the texture of jicama. Stick around long enough and we will have you eating all kinds of weird veggies!

Thanks sillygirl! This is great board. Only wish that I had found it sooner. Lots of great support. Looking forward to the journey with everybody. What a great bunch of Losers! LOL Well, I guess some actually are Maintainers!
