WELCOME, Poohtaz!

You sure found the right place. Most of us here have fallen off our diets so often we have permanent butt bruises. Although we use a variety of low-carb plans, there is lots of Atkins advice and support here. Do you have the Atkins book?

A two-week goal seems like a good move. Planning meals seems to be the key.

Come back and read and post often.

You'll find a ton of good information here, not to mention us friendly chickies always willing to lend an ear when someone falls (most recently me!), and of course, letting us get to know you better! Feel free to post on the daily thread (that's the one with the date on it!) and get to know us better

Welcome. I bet when you get two weeks under your belt, you'll feel like a new person. You can do it.
