Hello, another newbie here (:

Hello everyone!
My name is Holly, I'm 4 days in and 4lbs down on a pretty clean induction, just need to work on a bit more exercise at the moment.

I first found out about Atkins from my Aunt who swears by it, and I finally got up the courage and belief thanks to lurking in this forum for a week or two, to get myself going!

I'm drinking between 4-8 pints of water a day (from what I've read, the more the better...within reason, right?) and I haven't had any cravings for potato chips thanks to the occasional bag of pork scratchings. I love the liberal amounts of food and deliciousness on this diet, and all of your success stories are such a great inspiration!

So if anyone has any food tips or handy at-home exercises they could pass onto a newbie it'd be much appreatiated! I'm off to enter July's water challenge, thanks for all the motivation so far guys!

Youtube has some good exercise ideas for "at home". Can you get a pilates DVD? I find it really enjoyable and can be done at home
