Thumbs up Hello Everyone

Hi Everyone

I'm so glad I found this forum!

I was previously on Atkins last winter, but then a 3 month trip to Florida kinda threw me off the wagon. I'm back home now and ready to shed some of this excess weight. Realistically, I'd like to lose 30 lbs. I think thats an attainable goal.

I look forward to and appreciate all your support and help. Its great there are groups like this on the net.
