Hello, I am new
Hi, everyone!
Wow! is this group active or WHAT?? LOL! I am 36, have PCOS and although I have heard about Dr. Atkins sins I was a teenager 20 yrs ago, I never really knew what the plan was about or ever read the book. People just kept saying it was a "dangerous fad diet". Well, the past few years I have seen others' results and finally learned about what it is and want to try it. I have tried everything and it hasn't worked; hopefully, this will. I lost about 40+ lbs. on another plan but gave up on it because it was inconvenient to follow. I have my book, carb counters and I am ready to go. Please be patient if I ask stupid questions but will try my best not to ask all the typical newbie questions that are answered from reading the book! lowcarb_newbie 400/352/177 |

Hi Shawntelle, I wish you great success with low carbing. It's
definitely the easiest to stick to long term IMO. Good luck and post often. -- Cheri Shawntelle Azzouz wrote in message ... Hi, everyone! Wow! is this group active or WHAT?? LOL!

I have found that this group me helps tremendously. If I'm wondering about a certain topic about LC I can usually find it discussed on here, so I read a lot more than I post. I also have PCOS plus I'm a T2 diabetic, so the LC way of life is literally saving mine. This is my 2nd time on the plan. I lost 30 lbs. in 2001, got pregnant with my son and am now trying to take the weight off in hopes of trying for baby #2 next spring/summer (plus for the obvious health reasons). Congrats on making this decision & I wish you all the best! Teresa 252/238/199 by 2004 (1st goal) |

Hello, I am new
That is my main motivation for doing this as well: pregnancy. We have been
trying for 4yrs and then i got pregnant and had a miscarriage just as I entered my 5th month. Then suddenly, I gained 70 lbs. I was alarmed and went to my doc who diagnosed me. the first thing she said was. "umm, maybe someone will tell you I am a quack to say this but have you tried the Atkins Diet?" Then I found soulcyster.com by luck and they were saying the same thing! I thought maybe i should really look into it. My doctor feels that if i lose the weight, that I should be able to get pregnant again, so that is what I am trying to do. I hope to start induction Friday morning, but I am nervous to say the least. Still, i need to change my fat life. I am sick of Lane Bryant and Roaman's. 400/352/177 "Teresa" wrote in message ... Hi Shawntelle, Welcome to the group!

Yeah, yeah, everyone has PCOS, but mostly they are just fat, stupid, and
lazy with no sense of self control. -- JC Lyle's New Ultimate Diet "1. eat less you fat **** 2. exercise more you fat ****" |

The first few days are challenging, but you CAN get through them. Whenever you feel tempted to throw in the towel, post here instead. Look at before and after photos of various posters. They truly ARE inspiring and they are what motivated me most when I made the decision to start this WOE last June. Making the decision is the hardest part. Once the decision is made, it's just a matter of doing it. We'll have you rocking the cradle in no time! -- Saffire 205/185/125 Atkins since 6/14/03 Progress photo: http://photos.yahoo.com/saffire333 |

I have seen your past insensitive, rude, ignorant, yet uncreative remarks and have concluded that you must sit up late at night reading the responses to your stupid posts while yanking on your ******, while laughing hideously. Well, this is the only time i will ever respond to you, you piece of scum lower than a ****-pot because you can get your orgasm off someone else you, tosser. You are so full of ****, that the only thing you are good for is to be scraped off my shoe and to be fertilizer. I bet if you laid down in the grass, flowers would sprout out your arse because you are so rich and overflowing with crap. Have a nice day asshole. |
