Hello People !!

[ccolbert4]

K so some time ago I visited this bulletin board quite a bit and was gung ho about Atkins, however, I failed miserably because obviously I was not in the right mindset to be successful. I am a sponge for knowledge so I have pretty much read just about everything I can get my hands on regarding the lifestyle (including all the books). I think that now I am ready to start this over again and I have set a date of November 17th. The reason I have set that date is because it is the day after my last day of classes for my Bachelor's degree. I figure that this would be a good time because of the decrease in total stress. I will again be visiting this bulletin board to constantly glean support and wisdom from the veterans. Thanks and let the fun begin. (Current stats: 6'2" CW 250, GW: 194)
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris

Good luck with the degree and welcome back to ADBB.

Look forward to chatting to you over the next few months.

Hi Chris! Welcome to the adbb and to STAC!

Just a question: why not start earlier? I know there will be a lot of stress, but on the other hand there's always going to be a lot of stress in life. And, depending on your plans after you finish, starting a new job/moving/etc... can be stressful too.

Just a thought - either way, we're happy to have you here!

Well I thought about that and I don't have any plans to start a new job or do anything major after I finish. I have kinda started with my weight loss plans because I am on the treadmill three times a week for a minimum of 30-40 minutes. I just want to get a really good start at induction and right now don't have the time to plan meals and do any quality shopping for the right foods. That is not to say that I am totally pigging out on Carbs either. I still watch what I eat just not to the level of induction yet. Thanks for the comment and the welcome.
