hi, I'm new here...

[chels4144]

Just wanted to introduce myself. I started atkins 9 days ago and loving it. I had a baby about 4 months ago and need to lose some baby weight as well as some extra unwanted lbs that have racked up over the years. I thought it would be nice to join a forum specifically about Atkins to keep me focused on my goal! I've lost 5 lbs so far and although I've had a couple of difficult days, I think things are going really well.

congrats on the baby and your new lifestyle! Welcome to the forum, you will get lots of support here! Enjoy.

Hi and welcome -

Great news about your success so far!! Challenges are starting tomorrow so if you're interested look around and join in. It's a great way to stay accountable and to meet people.

Make sure you drink a minimum of 64 ounces of pure water (nothing added), exercise starting today and take a multi-vitamin. If you haven't already, read the 2002 Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution (DANDR).

You'll find wonderful recipes here: just make sure you use Induction Recipes to begin with. Vary your meals so you don't get tired of eating the same thing over and over -- we have too many choices for that to happen.
