Hi...I'm working and getting started back on Atkins again. I had such great results the last time, however, it's all back :( I got bored of the samething...It think I just need to mix it up... :D It's hard to stay on something when everyone in your house is able eat what ever they want. Even my husband, watching what he eats isn't as big a deal. Anyway, I came across this website and have been reading posts for the past week and wanted to HI :high:

HI!

boy, I know what you mean about everyone else eating what they want! I find myself wanting to live alone just to avoid exposure to Cheez-its and rice pudding and English muffins. It's hard to make sure I have the food I NEED available as well.

welcome, nice to have new folks. I "mix it up" also, but haven't been dieting for weight loss lately, just trying to hold on where I am. I need to loose, but can't get a hold of the motivation these days. But I am totally a believer in cutting carbs as the way to go...and feel best when I do.

so, come say hi on the daily thread, it starts with the dates for the week.

Thanks for the welcome. The cutting carbs is about the only thing that I have seen work for me, thus far; except when I was in the Army :) Ooooh if I could only get those days back :)

Anyway, I will "drop by" the daily thread...thanks for the invite...I'm still learning my way around here....loads of stuff :)

and WELCOME!

I'm a newbie (sort of) here, too and for the same reason...getting off track. Congrats on taking that first step in getting back on program. :)

I hope to see you around.

Hugs,
Rose

P.S. Why don't you join us on the Atkins board here? We'd love to have you! :)

Hi and welcome! Me too - I was on Atkins a few years ago and did great! I gained it back though. Same reason too - I have to mix it up. I got really bored. We're gonna do it this time!!
