I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself because I know I will be asking for your help and support.

I have been overweight my entire life.  I remember starting my first diet when I was four years old.

Like so many of us..I have lost weight..gained weight..lost...gained....until now at 47..I feel like I have really screwed up my body, metabolism and my life.

Again..like so many of us..I have tried every shake, pill, diet and any other "new" miracle weight loss thing to come on the market.

I do know my body responds well to low carb living.  I have been on and off Atkins for years.  I know I have to stop thinking of low carb has a diet and begin to see it has a way of life.

So, hello everyone, my name is Lynn and today is the first day of the new me!
