  • New Guy

    Hey everyone. Name is Ben and I got over or close to 150 pounds to lose to be at a happy for me weight. I weigh in the area of 400 pounds (deff over 350 but may not quite be at 400 yet). Anyways I want to get to 250, that is my Overall Goal weight. As it is, no one in my area even the hospital has a scale that is able to weigh me well. Im going to need a TON of help with this. Im starting Day 4 of induction today, and so far it hasnt been that bad. I found out I have cheated a bit (compared to what I used to eat not bad at all though) and need to up my water intake 2 fold.

    Glad to be here though. Im really glad I found this place!

            First and foremost ... congratulations on your decision to follow the Atkins plan! It changed my life and it can change yours.

            My husband began the plan when I did and lost weight alongside me. The is an invaluable source of support and information.

            Welcome aboard and we look forward to hearing of your successes!!!

            When you are alone in your head, you are in a bad neighborhood.
