Anyone from Tennessee?



I am new to the Atkins diet. Only 3 days into Induction. Already lost 4 lbs
The first 2 days I had terrible headaches and sugar cravings, but I held strong, and I am so glad that I did, because now the headaches and cravings are gone!

Hey yall. I'm from Smyrna (just south of Nashville). This is my second time starting Atkins. Started last June and lost 40 lbs then fell off the wagon. Only gained back 10 (but it feels like 40). Started induction again last week. We'll see how it goes.

Hello everybody, I'm from Nashville, Tn. I'm going to start Atkins this week. I've done it before and lost about 17lbs in about 5 weeks. I recently did Weight Watchers, but I'm ready for a change and Atkins was easier to follow. I don't have to count points.

Hi, I'm from Memphis. I've been on & off the wagon for the past year. I've lost 70 lbs but have regained 15. I plan to start strict induction again on Monday. My birthday is tomorrow & I'd hate to start on Friday so that's why I chose Monday. I'm sticking to it this time. Wish me luck.

Lets get this group/forum back up & going - There are tons of girls in TN/MS doing low carb. It would be great for us to support each other & maybe eventually have a get together

Hope yall have a good weekend!

I'mmmm....Back......

Hi people, I'm back and boy do I need help....kicking my butt back to where I left off! Adrienne...hey girl! I started back low carbing last Thursday, but have to reset all my numbers as I am now 6 lbs up from where I started 2 years ago *sigh* Have you heard anything from Lynn? Hattiesburg just got some of their power back last night so I wrote to her and Joe and asked if they still have a home and offered to let them come stay with Jak and I, if needed.
I've done pretty good staying on track so far, and have lost 4 lbs this week, but man o' man do i have a long way to go.

Hugs and snugs to all you TN~MS Bugs,
Arlene

There you are Sunshine!
I think a 40 lbs by X-Mas is a wonderful idea, as that is what I set my goal at since I started August 25th, that'll give me 4 months to achieve. Good to see you back too....maybe Lynn's good news will rub off onto you and your DH and Next spring you'll be rocking a cradle too!

Gonna go look in on TN~MS Gone Carbs board...I see you posted there as well.

Hugs and Hugs,

arlene
