Default And we're off..

Im Tara and im 20 years old. I've tried most diets in the past and have tried atkins before but always gave in. Now after reading some of the stories on here i figured i needed a better support system and motivation. My goal is 40 lbs and all i know is if someone wants something this badly it should be easy..but that's not always the case. Please bear with me i'm not sure how to run this site quite yet it's new to me lol but thanks for reading and good luck!

Welcome to ADBB, Tara! The support here is great.

Do you own a copy of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution (2002)? Reading the book is be essential for your success.

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"

Hello Tara! Welcome to the ADBB. Good to have you with us.
You'll find the board a great place for inspiration and good advice. There's always someone around to answer any query you might have.

Post lots, make friends and use the board for all it offers... which is a great deal! You'll soon learn the ropes.
