Default Sandra Here

Hello everyone, I am Sandra and I am BRAND SPANKING NEW to this whole Atkins. I am very overwhelmed by the info that is here and what you can and can't have. I have been asking questions to my friend that also is on here and has been doing great! I decided to try it! This is my second day of Induction.

I guess I will work on my signature so you all can see where I am at and never want to be at again!

I am a mother of 4 also. 2 girls and 2 boys all are excellent, well behaved, never talk back children. YEAH like if anyone has ANY of them, let me know! HA HA They are Girl 8, Boy 6, Girl 2, and Boy 6months.

Hi Sandra! Welcome to the board. Daniejim is right, the book is very important to get the full understanding of the hows/whys of Atkins. Reading around the board is also great, however, the book will become a lifelong friend! I'm glad you've got a real live buddy to do this with, that will certainly help you out!

Just wanted to say welcome Sandra! I just started last Wednesday, myself! It's neat that you have a personal friend on here! That makes it fun. I'll tell you what someone told me when I was welcomed: "Welcome and can't wait to see you shrink!"
