    Newbie Here, 290 now, 150 later.

    Hello All. My name is Holly and I am from Buffalo NY, I was on here once before but I have seemed to loose my screenname. I am a female and 21 years old. I am currently 290, the heaviest I have ever been in my life. Just the other day I stepped on the scale and there the numbers were right infront of me, and I went home and told my husband we were starting Atkins, and I didn't want to hear another peep about it. I told him to try it for a week and if he honestly didnt feel better*which he will* then he can stop. But I started induction yesterday, April 16,2005, day one was tough, but we made it to day two...yipeeee. I know my husband and I can do it!!! I would like to join the century club, last time I was here I got such good information and support. Im glad to be back. My goal is 150, so my loss should be around 140. Talk to you soon.

    Good for you. Welcome back. Hope to see you often. You would not believe what looking at some pictures would do for you when you are struggling for a minute or even the day. So, how is it up in Buffalo? I'm from Long Beach (LI). I love going to Buffalo (family up there) and then we go to Canada.

    Have fun. See you around :hug

                Welcome back to the board. When my wife was doing it with me (she can't now she's pregnant) I had the most success. If you do it together you will do very well, and keep each other motivated and honest.

                Good luck!
