    My Introduction

    Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Wayne and I am 40yo. I started Atkins on 1-29-06 weighing 428lbs. I have lost 13lbs during the first week of induction. I have attempted Atkins before and have been somewhat successful. Of course I have gone off of it and forgotten the eating principles. This time things seem different. I am more motivated and determined than ever before. My goal is to weigh 225lbs by the end of the year. Congratulations to those who have made it and thanks for posting your success stories. They definitely inspire me. To everyone who is still struggling hang in there we will make it!

    I would love to hear from some people who have lost a lot of weight on Atkins.

      Welcome! We have a few guys on here who have lost big amounts or are well along the way - Kent, LCDave, RichT, Laburnum. Drop into the Men's Forum where I gather all things arcane relating to males losing weight are discussed. And good luck with it this time!

          Welcome to the board Wayne. As a fellow man, can I point you in the direction of the "male only forum". Apply to join and you'll be part of an exclusive set of posters. Who discuss Atkins for men, and other topics relating to the male gender.

          It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




          I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

                    Hi Wayne! So happy to see you've joined the ADBB!!! It sounds like your first week was a huge success!! You did great. Getting serious about losing the weight and getting healthy is a gigantic step to take. I congratulate you!!

                    I've been living the Atkins Way of life now for almost 2 years. My only regret is that I wish I'd done it a heck of a lot sooner in my life and not lived so many years hating my body and my life. If you haven't already, please read the book, Dr. Atkins New diet revolution, edition 2002. It is a life-saver. It tells you what to expect and how to do the WOE correctly. Take your supplements so your body doesn't get run-down and stays in tip-top working order, drink lots of water to help fight off hunger...keep you hydrated...and keep your skin elastically for when you lose the weight. Also exercise is a must. It will help your metabolism, keep your mind clear and full of positive mental outlook. Make exercise a daily habit and you'll have won half the battle of getting in shape and losing the weight.

                    You have joined the most powerful and positive support group. The ADBB is full of people who understand the frustrations and fears that we all face when we start this new way of life. Come here often and post, read and join in the challenges. Best wishes to you and keep us posted on your success!!!
