Default My intro

My name is Christy. I live on the Mississippi Coast. A few years ago I did Atkins and did very well. I don't know why I ever stopped! Nov 5th I started eating low carb but not following any particular plan. I have lost 8 lbs!! Tomorrow I'm starting the induction phase of Atkins. I read the book several years ago.

I look forward to reading the post here and giving and getting encouragement!

Welcome Christy. You will find inspiration and motivation here. Good luck on starting the plan tomorrow. I suggest starting a journal also to track your daily progress. My journal and posting here everyday keeps me accountable and on track. I amd a second timer also. I wish you much success on your weightloss journey.

Thanks for the welcome. I'm at work right now and we have some "down time". I'm learning my way around the forum. A journal is a great idea!

nice to have you with us Christy. It is good to see you are starting induction and plan on doing it right. You know this plan works, so stay with us this time and get those unwanted pounds off for good. Browse around the board and soak in all it has to offer.
Be sure and post often and let us hear how your induction is going next week. ttyl, brady

Hi Christy, welcome to the board. Why did you stop? Not to worry, it happens and more importantly you are back on track. You might want to refresh yourself with the book, you know how important it is to follow this plan properly.

Congrats on the 8 pounds so far, that's terrific.

Hiya Christy! Welcome to the board. Great news that you've decided to re-commit to Atkins.

Ask any questions you might have. Lots of help and advice to be had here.
Happy further losing!
