Hi Everyone!

It's been a LONG while since I've joined any forums and am excited to meet new friends! Have been lurking here a bit and have picked up some GREAT tips from ya'll - THANKS!

I am new to low carbing, but am on Atkins and loving it - 14 pounds in three weeks! My mom used to be on Atkins all the time in the 1970s and I am pleased to see that my options are much broader than when she was doing it. I seem to remember her drinking and eating not much more than Tab, fried pork skins and mayonnaise - yecchh!

Anyway, I live just outside of New Orleans (some of the greatest food in the WORLD is here!), am married and have two children. I've always carried a few extra pounds, but not like this! I finally realized that I couldn't keep calling it "baby fat" when the "baby" is four years old!
