My name is Daniel.
I am 33, about to turn 34, years old. I have spent just about my whole life overweight. With the exception of loseing 130 pounds 8 years ago. I have to admit i couldnt remember ever feeling that good. And it was thanks to a really small young lady that had told me about Atkins. I thought it was a bit strange sounding at first but she began to relate her struggle with weight. It worked for her so I jumped on board to this new way of eating, it was new to me. I went from 315 to 185 in less than 6 months. I was doing ALOT of walking at the time. I love the mountains. I kept the weight off for 2 years. I decided it was time to make another change.
I had to quit smoking. This is where it changed. I started to go astray, little by little. Then compound that with the loss of my dad and later a friend. I let go. Years later I sit here in a state of depression, pain and confusion. I am now 440 pounds. Funny thing is, everyone in my life tells me how I can lose the weight. But I have always known how to do it. It has just been hard to get started for some reason. But I have decided that I am tired of it. I cant even go out to check my mail without my back hurting. Anyway, I am here because I feel the number one thing that kept me going 8 years ago was the support my friend Kelly gave me, I am here to ask for your help. I know its possible. Today is the two week point of the induction phase. I made it this far, so...here I am.
