Another new kid on the long block

energeegurl · 04-11-2004, 02:21 PM

Hi there, Michelle here. I am new to the site and what a site it is. It is going to take me forever to learn how to get around on here. I hope I learn quick, just reading the bulletin boards I am so excited to get going with this new change of life. I have to say that I have lost weight before over 110 pounds and gained it back, only because I lost it the wrong way, and I also didn't excercise.

I am starting this new way of living on 4-12-04. I am hoping that I will get lots of support from this site and all of you knew friends here. I know I will surely need support and people to chat with on a daily basis, I just hope I remember how to get to this site where I posted. Otherwise If nobody sees me in the next few days on here, please contact me via instant message that i have in my profile please.................I am going to send this now and try to find it myself.
So happy to be here......hope to hear from you all soon

Hi Michelle
So how was your first day? I've been on Atkins since 1/5 but am re-inducting this week. I've done pretty well - lost about 27 lbs. I'm actually only5 lbs from goal, but may go lower once I get there. We'll see. This is DH and I's third time on Atkins in the last 2 years or so, but this time we are more motivated and have stayed with it longer than we had before. We're looking at it as a WOE rather than a 'diet'. We still have tons of Easter candy around, so this morning I put it in the pantry - out of sight out of mind! Are you taking a good multivitiman? I take one, along with C, E and Calcuim.

Best of luck.

Good Luck to you on the program. I'm a Newbie too. This does seem like a great place for information and support. Just what we all need. We are all in this together. And together we will be triumphant!

HI! I am 26 years old and just started yesterday! I am going to try eating high protein/low carb and see how it works out. I'm feeling good today and am not extra hungry, but then again it's only my second day. I am getting married in October! I came across this website while searching for high protein/low carb foods and found it encouraging! I would love to be able to talk to someone about this and give encourgement too!
