New...to the group the diet....HELP!

[Guest guest]

Hi...I'm Jill....32 yrs./290lbs.

I'm trying to begin the Arkins program, but I'm having a very hard

time figuring it out....of course, I just bought the book today, so

I'm planning on it getting easier with more info....but I need some

quick answers right away!

In the first 2 weeks is it absolutely no carbs....I can't seem to

figure out what has no carbs....does anyone have any suggestions for

good foods I can eat?

Is there a food list on this site anywhere? In the files or database

or anything? I'll keep looking around, but while looking for foods

to eat, thinking that it would be good to incorporate fresh fruit and

vegies into my diet, I found that in trying to do this diet a lot of

those things are off limits too!

I guess, basically I'm wondering what I can eat?!!?!? I would

appreciate any and all help!

I'm so happy to have found this group, and this program! Thanks for

being here for me to find!!!!

Jill

ps: as I wrote above I weigh about 290lbs. Has anyone on this board

lost 100lbs or more? It's just so encouraging to hear those stories

since that's what I personally need to lose!

thanx!
