Hi there. I've been lurking for a couple weeks or so, and I'm very pleased to find such a supportive group of folks online. You have a great community here, and I can't wait to get to know you better.

I've been dieting off and on for the last 8 years or so. Gained back a lot of weight about 4 years ago when I was having a tough personal time. This time I'm doing it right tho! I'm on Atkins, which is working for me right now. But I am an all around eater. Binge/compulsive, emotional, love just to taste food eater. And unfortunately I don't have any close friends or family that really struggle with their weight (geographically or relationship-illy), so I'm kind of out here by myself.

Anyway, look forward to seeing you on the boards!

Welcome!! I too LOVE food and know how hard it is to just say no! But that's why we're here. We'll help you out! Hope to get to know you better and good luck with the weight loss.

Hey Pengbear!

Have you seen our Atkins forums? They're in the "Low Carb Lifestyle" section - check them out!

You may also want to visit the 100 lb club, a group of those who have lost or are on their way to losing 100 lbs or so.

Look around, find a spot, and settle in. Can't wait to get to know you better!

Thank you guys! I'll be checking out both the Atkins and the 100 lbs groups.
