Welcome to Atkins-A-WayOfLife@onelist.com

[Guest guest]

Celia, what I do sometimes when I'm in a hurry is just look at the subject

line. If it's one that has been chatter and hoorays vs. having content of

interest, I just delete it without bothering to read it. Sometimes I may

miss something good that way but I figure if it's really relevant that it

will come up again. Days when I'm not rushed, I like hearing the " Good Job "

type comments. Sometimes they help pull me up when I'm feeling frustrated.

Just my humble thoughts, Judy in WA

I agree with you Mollie that is why the list is set up

this way. If it isnt a email that interest you skip

it go to the next.

It's also very easy to start a list, and takes nothing to run it if you

don't moderate it. So anyone who has a different structure in mind should

just start another one and be very very specific with what the list will be.

LOL - - I like that Teena.... and I agree... I really like the

chattiness of the list and was on anohter and no one said much. Real

slow. I like the fact that this is always moving!

I am the list owner and this list will stay the way it

is I will not change it, I made it so it is a

friendly and supportive list.

Hello...I am new to the Atkins Diet but already love

it. Almost 3wks and 21 pounds. I am 33 yrs old,

married to a wonderful guy just a little over a year.

He is very supportive in my quest for a healthier me.

I have over 200lbs to lose and am looking for some

other means of support besides my hubby. He is not

overweight so he doesn't really know what it is like.

Anyway, thanks for letting me on the board! Looking

forward to hearing from others in my situation.

Hi Sheri-

Welcome. YOu'll love this list!

Hi Sheri,

Welcome to the group. 60 days ago I had 200 lbs to lose too. Now I only

have 149. This wol (way of life) is terrific. You'll get an enormous amount

of support from this group. The WOLfpack is a very knowledgeable group. Our

stories are similar. I'll be 33 next month. My hubby of ten years is 5'10 "

and 155lbs. He's very supportive but this group is what does it for me.

Anywho--you will love it here.

Welcome to the list!! I am the same as you when I started this Way Of Life

(WOL). I read dozens of web sites and the book and asked questions of people

that probably thought I was a pain in the butt, But I didn't care I just kept

asking, You go ahead and ask away!! If one of us doesn't know the answer some

one will look it up. There is alot of support here!!! your gonna love this

list!! My husband is the same way, he didn't read the book either he just

went on it with me and by day 5 he went off it never to return!! LOL Oh

well!! Good Luck!!

Hi my name is janalyn and i started the atkins diet months ago and stopped.

When I did it before I lost 20 pounds and then I just went off of it,

needless to say I have gained it all back and then some. I started again

last wednesday 9/15/99. I started out weighing 250 and am now down to 241

as of yesterday. Also before when i was on this diet i constantly weighed

myself, constantly getting discouraged. When I started again I threw away

my scale, and now only weigh myself about once a week at work. If anybody

has any hints that would help please let me know
