Howdy!

So I began Atkins 8/5/02 and originally lost 42 pounds.  I've gained a
few of them back because, a) I had surgery and couldn't seem to start
loosing again after I got off the antibiotics and b) started eating a
lot of the sugar-free low-carb candy.

So now I'm seriously starting up again - this is my 2nd day!

Tomorrow will be my first day of going to the gym.  Did anyone sign up
for the Discovery Channel National Fitness Challenge?  I did, so I'm
using their free 3-month pass to Ballys.  I am a regular (at least
payment-wise) with Linda Evans, but I don't really like them much.

If anyone has a Costco near them, they have the low-carb bread.  I
haven't had any (induction, you know), but my boyfriend (who's also
doing Atkins) likes it.  They also have the splenda drink "Ice Botanicals".

If you are fortunate enough to have a Sams Club, they have the Atkins
shakes (again.. I'm staying away) for something like $1.60 each.  They
also have Fruit H2O and had some Crystal Light bottled drinks (both made
with Splenda).

Okay.. so I'm rambling.

I joined this group for support, recipies, information and maybe to even
make a few friends!
