Happy New Year!

I'm starting Atkins Induction today and want to intoduce myself. I'm a 45 year old sahm from Canada. I've poked at Atkins for years, and have had success... but until now I have always fallen back to my old habits.

I am so excited to have found this board because I know that the information, the support, and the accountability will help me tremendously! Just reading here during the past few days has already helped me see where I have made my mistakes in the past. I am totally convinced that Atkins is the best diet for me because it always makes me feel great. I look forward to getting to know many of you and having success on this journey together!

Welcome SkiMom!

It's great to have you here on the forum! This is an amazing place to be....I sound like a broken record (I post this part often)...but the people on this forum truly care and the support and encouragement is amazing!

I too feel fabulous eating this way, since I've begun I have never felt so good.....I didn't even go through Induction flu or have headaches at the beginning, it's been an amazing way of eating for me.

Come here lots, read as much as you can and post often....I look forward as well to getting to know you as well. (I live in Canada too....British Columbia).

It's great to meet you....keep posting and share with us how things are going.

All the best to you!

Hi Skimom
Nice to see an Albertan around. I am in Saskatchewan. I really needed to ski today. Tons of snow and no one had cleared anything.
Good luck to you. Will be looking for you around the board.
