Hello Everyone!

[SamanthaAnn]

I am so excited to find this forum! This is my second time on Atkins and the first time I was on it, there were a lot of people doing the same thing. This time around, I felt like I was the only one in the universe until I found this forum! I am very glad to know there are others like me! It's encouraging!

I started 4/21/08 so that makes this day 7. We are doing a Biggest Loser game at work, so I'm excited to see how this plan will stack up against those on WW or a low-fat plan. All I know is WW will not work for me (too much rope with which to hang myself) and I'm constantly hungry on a low-fat diet.

I don't really remember how I felt last time I was on Atkins, but by day 4 this time, I actually felt more energetic than I have in months if not years. Thanks to y'all, I've also found fitday.com and that's been wonderful!

Anyway, I'm glad to be here!

Hi SamanthaAnn:

I'm new and learning too.

Welcome.

I tried a variation of one of the pumpkin recipes yesterday! I am really going to make an attempt to vary my diet. I seem to have almost the same thing every day. The pumpkin was yummy. I added some cinnamon.
