    Re: Wow had to post Century looked so empty for so long!

    Hello Everyone and Happy Veterans Day to our Veterans. I'm happy to see people posting here as well. I've lost over 100 pounds and have kept it off. I'm still working on getting the rest off. I found it very easy to get the weight off. Keeping it off is where the work really began for me. I found it particularly helpful to choose foods on the lower Glycemic Index. The weight just melted off for me. You can go to www.glycemicindex.com to learn more about the GI and GL ( Glycemic Load). I found that the GI was very instrumental for my weightloss and continues to be benificial. Wishing everyone a great Atkins day.

        Sounds good to me Austlyn! It's nice to meet you and I look forward to checking in at the new CC Roll Call. A Place where I know I will be comfortable being a part of. Thanks for getting it started.

          Hi everyone. I came looking in here when i first joined, but it seemed dead, so i moved on. Good to know the CPR is working I'm a third-time-around Atkiner, hoping that I have the good sense to stick with this for life now. Would love to lose 150 pounds, but setting my goal for a little more realistic 130 pounds. Seems to be coming off much slower this time





          290 lbs. on 11/02/07 Goal: 145 lbs. or size 14 whichever comes first!

            Hi all,

            I've been very crap and sticking to the diet for a long time now.

            Time for me to come 'back'!!

            For the past 18 months there has been a deep dark void in my life.

            Call me reborn or whatever, but now that I have become Christian, I feel like life is not as bleak as it used to be. I'm becoming a more calmed out dude as well.

            I would like to see the CC a lot more active! (And not just many water challenge threads - other things as well).

                Yeah, instead of just a plain old how much water can you drink challenge, lets make it TRULY a challenge....how much water can you drink without
                peeing?

                  Ummmm, no offense but not such a great idea. Deliberately not peeing while drinking large volumes of water can lead to hyponatremia, also known as water intoxication, which can be fatal. If you recall a year or so ago, a woman died during a radio contest doing that exact "challenge".

                          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....
                          Yes. Me. I have ooooooohhhhh 238 pounds to go as of today, but thats a bit overwhelming so I've broken it up into 12 tiny goals. That doesn't sound so bad.
                          The CC was awesome when I first joined the board....I really miss how it used to be. I'm sure if some of the originals come back and post and the newbies do too.....this place can be the fun place it was or perhaps even better

                                I've found that one of the things about losing weight is I'm not online as often ... more likely to be doing the million things a day that face me. But I try to stop by occasionally. It is like Bren says ... Pay It Forward. If you have had success or struggle, share it ... it may help someone else who happens by. I miss the old friends from the ADBB, but I've learned of so many new inspirational posters since checking in!
