  • Wow had to post Century looked so empty for so long!

    Hello,
    I re-started the 4th of November. I actually have more than 100pounds I would like to lose almost 200, But my first gol is 104 pounds. Is not there anyone else out there who has this much weight to lose....

    Hello Austlyn,

    Yes this forum (Century Club) is almost dead. It's a shame really this used to be the most active forum on the board (and really the reason I joined). It was a great group of regulars. But alas, all things change and now other forums are more active. But if more people post in here maybe it can be revived a bit.

      I haven't been on the BB for some time and was shocked how slow Century Club was when I started posting again.

      Just keep in mind that you lose the first pound the same way that you lose the last pound.

          I had originally started out with wanting to lose 100 pounds (got scared around the time of stall after induction and changed it to 90 pounds). However I found the culprit? Flax oil and started losing again. I started on 10/01/07 and have lost 19 pounds. I know I can reach the original goal of 140. I'm worth it. We're all worth it!!

          Best of health to all of you!

            Purplecat: I am sure you will make it to that goal. I would wish you luck but there is not any needed just following plan as intended

              So, how do you like the Atkins WOE so far?

              I was stalled for over a year and having issues staying on plan. Diet Coke is now just as evil in my mind as sugar. Since cutting it out 3 weeks ago I have lost 5 pounds. Yay!

                Hi Austlyn,

                I'm here! I have almost 200 pounds to lose too! I just restarted Atkins last month and am having a difficult time staying on plan. It's not a difficult WOE at all, I'm just so stubborn and addicted to CARBS. UGH!

                Anyway, it would be GREAT to get the Century Club up and running. There's nothing like getting support from people who know what you're going through. WE CAN DO THIS!! And I can't wait to see our "after" photo!

                    Step-by-step and bit-by-bit, we'll get there. I focus only on one day at a time. I hit my first goal at the end of October (that was 225 lbs.). My second goal is 200 lbs. My overall goal is just to make it one year staying on plan. I don't want to quit before I'm truly started. I want to see how far I can go with this. I'm determined to live the Atkins life indefinitely.

                      It is good to see some 'oldies' as well as some 'newbies' posting here
                      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                        Wow this so cool I am glad so many people are posting here now. I think it helps to have a good support group that specifically understands your situation. I totally understand not being able to stay on track.
                        inhisgrip maybe we should make you are official secretary Purple those are great goals. Ellizen I am so glad as well

                          YES! Haha...I will keep track of all of us CC members! And maybe it will make me get my big butt in gear. How can we get the ball rolling here at the CC? Should we have a challenge? A daily roll call, perhaps, where everyone can check in? Let's make this group a happenin' place to be!

                          Any suggestions?

                            I am having a great Atkins weekend. I poppped popcorn for 5 hours on Friday for a school function and didn't taste any. In fact I wasn't even that tempted. I bet I would have been if I drank a Diet Coke. I'm so glad that I cut that out.

                            Saturday was a lay around all day kind of day. I read, played on the computer, and played with my kids. Didn't eat much because I didn't do much.

                            Today I'm starting off with some eggs, bacon, and a side of fried summer squash. I am going to go to church and when I get back home make some steak on the grill and mashed cauliflower.

                            How is everyone's weekend going?

                              Hey Michele,

                              Good for you for not tasting that popcorn. I'm sure it smelled delicious. I've had a rather lazy weekend too. BUT unlike you my eating has been HORRIFIC! Ugh! I'm going to church this morning and then eating a nice chicken salad for lunch (hold the croutons). I am determined to start fresh today and stick with it the WHOLE week. Wish me luck, guys. I'm so tired of reporting my failures to the ADBB. I want it to be a success this week!
