Hello Everyone!

[MeeeMeee]

Hello Everyone! i have made the choice to go Low Carb! i dont know YET if i want to do it Atkins Style - but i am Definitely going Low Carb... i will be 49 this month and i have 1yr to go from 270 down to at least 200... im a 5'7" Female... Mexican American so you know ive been eating ALOT of Tortilla and Rice... carbs are Definitely my downfall... they are almost all that i eat! Bread, Cold Cereal, Rice, Potatos, Sugar, Tortillas, Etc... i mean thats really ALL i ever eat! but i have got to get this under control... i have done Low Carb before and its the only thing that worked for me... Counting Calories didnt work... Low Fat didnt work... so im coming back to Low Carb... i just wanted to pop i and say Hello Everyone!

Welcome, MeeeMeee.

Good choice on choosing a low-carb diet.

South Beach will give you a lot more choices, but it will not curb the cravings like Atkins does.

Out of control hunger was what drove me to Atkins. Now that I'm settling into it as a lifestyle I don't have cravings any more.

The key to making that happen is to follow the rules of induction exactly as written.

Good luck which ever diet you choose!
