Subject: Hi, I'm new to this site

Hi, I'm new to this site. I've been doing Atkins for a little over 2 weeks now. I lost 8 lbs. in the induction phase and am so excited! I've been on Atkins diet before and lost 37 lbs. in 3 months. I really loved the diet because I had a message board that I could always go and get support and ask questions. This board is just like the one I use to go to!!!

Well, I'm 27 years old, 5'9 and before I started Atkins I weighed 252 lbs. and am currently at 244. I really would like to go down to 175 lbs. Once I get there, I have to evaluate to see if I need to lose anymore. I'm tall and have bigger bones, so I'll have to wait and see!!!!

Since induction, I have been having anywhere from 30-40 carbs a day. I totally stay away from sugar, flour, potatoes, noodles, etc. Those carbs are in the cheeses, vegetables and wasa crackers I've been eating.

I was wondering how many carbs each of you have everyday and if you could tell me what the average amount of weight it is that you lose per week? I'm just trying to decide on how many carbs I should stick with so that I still lose weight quickly.

Have a great fourth of July everybody!
Heather
