Hi!

I'm very new to this and i have never used a forum before either.

I always used to be very thin however over the past 2yrs i've got into some really bad eating habits and now 98% of my wardrobe no longer fits me - i feel like i've just gained weight over night. My confidence has dropped and i've become quite shy where as I used to be bubbly and never self concious...

I started my atkins diet on Monday with my friend however I have never dieted before and I'm afraid i will fall off the wagon.

Does anyone have any suggestions and tips that may help?

Hi Kate and welcome to 3FC!

We have an Atkins forum here if you want to check it out - http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/atkins-226/

My tip/advice would be to commit to your plan 150% and never stop believing in the power of you.

Good luck with your goals

Hugs

Howdy. Nice to have another addition to the forums. I'm a newbie, too. Both to the forums and dieting. My advice would be to take each day, one at a time. Each journey begins with the first step and you made a great choice by joining this community.

Thanks! Your comments have made me feel a lot more positive about getting ready to battle the bulge! lol. xx
