Hi everyone

I am brand new to the board....4 weeks into Atkins and 10.5 pounds lighter. That's 42 sticks of butter I'll never see again!!!

Trying to find a place where I won't be judged, yet supported and confronted when need be. Also a place where I can put thoughts and get feedback (noticed the journal section..yeah!!!)

Hope to meet a lot of great people with common goals

Welcome!!One of the nicest things about this place is the non-judgemental attitude,no one will condem you if you mess up, you may get a lecture but it will be delivered with love and smileys.

Ty Jackie!!

I've already added my first journal entry...which is what I've desperately seeked to do!

Bring on the lectures...I'll listen, get angry if I don't agree LOL, and take the advice into consideration. Only way I can grow is to learn.

I just joined this site a bit over a month ago, this is my second time trying, and I believe my first time failed due to critisim (sp?) and lack of support from those around me.

This place is awesome, tons of info, and great ideas. I know I will make this a permanent wol (way of life) with all the support here.

Welcome! And a little advice read the posts at the very top of this forum, big helpers there.

And......DRINK YOUR WATER!

I've been to other LC websites but I haven't found one as great as this!

This is truly a wonderful support group! The people here are great. They never condemn you when you succumb to sugar cravings. They keep welcoming me back no matter how many times I've stray.
