    400 Club

    I joined the 400 club recently. Am I happy about it. No.
    I almost fainted when I stepped on the scale at the doctors office. 402. OMG. OMG.
    I go to weigh in next monday. My first goal is to get out of the 400 club fast! I never thought I'd say this......but I want to be 398 pounds!!!! (and less, but for now, 398 will do!)
    I feel so, I don't know, lost? I have 255 pounds to loose and its a bit overwhelming to say the least. I know I can do it. Attitude changes everything. I have a good attitude. I believe in myself. I just need to keep the good attitude and kiss the 400 club good bye!
    I need help. I know I can't do this alone.
    I'm back on induction as of 11:37pm (why wait til morning right). Who has the butt glue? I need it to glue my monster butt to the seat!
    Wish me luck!

    Good Luck!

    If you see my stats you will see that I was heavier than you, now I am lighter than you.
    It can happen that quick. 6 months went by pretty fast, it's just a matter of starting and sticking to it.
    Now I wanna get out of the 300's! lol!

    You can do this!

          Don't think of it as 255 pounds to lose. That can be a bit intimidating. Why don't you start with 10 pounds to lose. Then once that is gone, go for 10 more. Read everything you can right here on the boards. Read the book! It's invaluable! I wouldn't advise the glue. You need to get moving. Start off small and work up to more exercise. That's what I'm doing right now. Some of it is tough, but I know when I'm down 100 pounds, it'll be well worth it. It will for you, too!

            Definitely what kate said. You don't have to wait until you lose 250 pounds before you enjoy the benefits of weightloss. If you lose 10 pounds you will feel a million times better then right now. If you lose another ten pounds, you will feel a million times better again and so on. The journey can be just as enjoyable as the destination. Just rememer on atkins you won't have to feel starved and deprived the entire time like you do on other "diets", you get to actually enjoy your food!!

              I am so there for you! I have so much faith in you and your plight to get healthy. It is amazing what we can do when we put our minds to it and get motivated with a healthy attitude. YOU WILL DO THIS. You have been here and given so many ADBB Hugs to your fellow-members. I'm sure that what you've given out will come back to you doubled!!! <HUGS>

                We're all here for you... I agree with everyone on thinking about 10 to 20 lbs at a time... my first mini goal was to lose 20 lbs... I'm 4.5 lbs away from my goal. Then my next goal is 20 more... etc. Another thing I'm doing is rewarding myself. Every 20 lbs I lose I plan to get something I want or do something I've really wanted to do. After I lose this 20 I will go and get my nails done. We're all rooting you on! YOU CAN DO IT!

                    Hi Tamariah,

                    I'm so glad you came here. You are not alone here. I think most of us have felt what you feel to some degree. You will have your up days and down days, but remember to ask for help here when you feel low. We give lots of hugs and encouragement from a genuine place because we've all been there.

                    Just take it one day at a time. For me, just getting through my first one or two days on plan was a small victory because it gets A LOT easier after that!

                    Good luck to you, and we'll see you around the board!

                      Tamariah...no glue, just hugs and we'll just hold you down and tie you to the seat if you want! LOL!

                      C'mon you CAN and WILL do this...I have TOTAL Faith in you. You know the drill, check in, check in often, write when you're tempted to eat...We've all been there with failing at previous attempts at diets etc...You know this one is one that works!

                          I don't know what time zone you live in, but I'm usually up and I pop in here frequently at night, so if you ever feel tempted at night, just post a HELP sign!

                          Staying active on this board (even just to browse) gives me a lot of motivation to stay focused while I have free time at home. When no one seems to be posting, I usually will look up low-carb recipes to experiment with.

                            As you see I have gained quite a lot too....but I'm sure we can do this together....I just might need some of that glue or rope that you are not using....maybe they can tie us together in front of the computer....
