Hey Frank, welcome to the ADBB! You have definitely come to the right place. You'll find lots of support here. Make sure to come by the Century Club. It's for those of us with 100 or more pounds to lose. We have a roll call thread every day where we check in with each other. It's a great bunch of people, all with the same goal in mind. I look forward to seeing you around the board. Best of luck!

Hi Frank:

I just started this past Monday and I have a good amount of weight to lose too. Isn't Atkins great? Chicken, eggs, hamburger, and veggies? I'm a happy man. It's encouraging to see so many people starting around my time. I hope we can all celebrate our success with Atkins together too.
