I just realized I haven't properly introduced myself...

[Cleo128]

My name's Cleo, a freshman history major and have been trying to lose weight for as long as I can remember. I'm not incredibly overweight, but I'm definitely resting above where I need to be to feel good about my body. Just surfing his board has been such a help for the past couple of weeks, although I have been sabotaging my efforts a lot lately and haven't made much progress... I've restarted this diet so many times, losing/regaining the same 5 pounds so many times I'm wondering if I'm past the point of no return. I am hopeful, however, and plan on making my goal of 128 pounds by New Years.
There! No more feeling like a stranger.

Welcome to the board, Cleo!


I'm a sophmore in college, myself, working on an Elementary Education degree. It's an interesting experience juggling everything. lol.

Best wishes on your goals. Staying focused and keeping your water & exercise up will be your main goals with eating LC healthy.

Welcome Cleo.

As another person who has been trying to lose weight as long as I can remember, you've finally reached the right place. You will get so much inspiration and knowledge about doing Atkins...it won't be long before you'll reach your goal. Make sure you read the book, Dr. Atkins New Diet Revoluton, edition 2002. It will teach you how Atkins works and give you guidelines as to how to do it.

Best wishes! Keep us posted on your success.

Hi, cleo! I love your handle, BTW. You have great taste! As well, I was a history major when I began college (later switched, but I still love history), so I think we have a lot in common... well, save for I'm the really fat, old twin.

Welcome aboard! I know you'll make it to goal!
