Hi everyone!
I have re-discovered my Atkins stuff..pulled my books out...etc...dusted everything off.

I am going to start Induction on 6/13 (after my son's birthday party weekend) and I am going to do it clean.

I have done Atkins before (as I have done Sugar Busters, Weight Watchers, South Beach, Body For Life..etc...I can go on and on...) but, I do think that Atkins is probably the best.

I need some support...I need to hear "success stories" if at all possible...and make new friends on this thread...

I will keep posting. I have posted previously on South Beach....but, I am doing the "switcharoo"

Welcome Sarah!

It is pretty quiet around here lately so forgive us for not replying sooner.

Check out the Atkins web site for lots of info and plenty of success stories.

We will be right here with you come Monday!

Thanks! I am excited to start. I have about 25lbs to lose...or whatever will get me down to 105-110ish...I am very short...so, any pound looks like 5! I am only 5'1" and the doctor told me I was obese!!! So, here I am to change that!!!

yay! good luck sarah!

Glad you are joining us, Sarah! Atkins is the only thing that works for me, too. So far with Atkins, I've lost 42 pounds. I'm trying to cut out the "cheats" that have become a little too common lately to lose the last 23 pounds. Looking forward to getting to know you. Welcome to the Atkins board!

Awesome!! I can't wait

I am going to start weaning myself off coffee in these next 10 days...before I start induction...I have a horrible caffeine addiction..that bothers me worse than anything else...

Sarah: Welcome!! Plenty of success stories and plenty of encouragement here!! Just pop in every day and you'll get your encouragement (or kick in the butt if you want ). These ladies here are excellent at keeping ya going!

Good Luck Sarah!
I just started Atkins on 6/1/05 and at my one week mark I lost 12lbs already..
I am planning on seeing this through my goal weight..
::GOOD LUCK::

Hi Sarah! Sounds like we have a lot in common. Aside from my name also being Sarah, I too and am beginning induction today (6/13) and also need to lose about 25 pounds. The hardest part about all this is my mocha addiction. I LOVE white chocolate mochas and it will be difficult to part ways with them. However, I would much rather look and feel good in a bikini this summer than slurp down endless mochas. (I guess.) Anyway - welcome!
