Hello Lori and welcome aboard! Glad you're here with us and have decided against winging it all on your own. It's really important to have support and encouragement and here at ADBB we try to give just that. Keep your goal firmly in mind and don't let others sway you. Looking forward to reading of your successes!

Hi Lori! Welcome to the board. Atkins is the best, it's healthy and keeps you satisfied. Can you pinpoint why you've failed in the past so it doesn't happen again? I can tell you that the support on this board is terrific for keeping us on the straight and narrow! Come around often.

Hello everyone and thank you for such a warm welcome. I do believe the reason I have failed is because I have never had to diet before - until the last few years due to my age/metabolism changing. When I started worrying about my weight gain, I was mostly told by others to basically cut back my portions and increase my exercise - in which I am fairly active with golf, tennis and go to the gym about 3 days a week. I have been unsuccessful at losing much weight and now I know I need to follow something specifically. I also have to admit that I am a carboholic.  I need to join Carboholics Annonymos! LOL I am so happy to find this group and I am sure I will find the support I need here.
