    Goalie Anniversary!

    She is a longtime member of this board, since March 2005! She has been working this WOE for even longer than that.

    She's one of the very first people I ever "read" on this board. She is a wealth of information, and support.

    She's a runner now, and it's part of what helps her keep her weight off and stay in shape!

    Please help me celebrate TTDRIVER (Betty)!

    Congratulations on many, many successful years of this WOL!

                  Re: Goalie Anniversary!

                  Thanks everyone!

                  I just have to say this...

                  When I bought my DANDR in January 2002, I have to admit: I thought Dr. Atkins was either an egomaniac or a nutcase ... when he pretty much guaranteed that I would lose weight following a HIGH FAT diet ... I had to ask myself "what's this man been smokin'???"

                  So I gave it 2 weeks. I figured, hey, I can do ANYTHING for 2 weeks right? Prove him wrong and add another lunatic to the many who had told me how to lose weight in the past WITHOUT SUCCESS.

                  Here I was .. 46 years old, overweight, sedentary...full of aches and pains of "mid-life" and thinking "yeah well, that's par for the course...after all I am nearly 50...."

                  So I embarked on my skeptical journey....

                  I gave it my best for 2 WEEKS. That's all I committed to .. that's all the time I needed to dismiss this crazy "doctor" who claimed to know so much ...

                  Well, the rest is, as they say, HISTORY.

                  Its now nearly 6 years later ... and this woman will be the FIRST to admit she was WRONG and the Doctor was RIGHT ...

                  The plan works, folks. You have to commit 100% to it, but it WORKS. Dr. Atkins, I thank you for changing my life forever.

                            What I know:
                            1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
                            2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
                            3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
                            4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.
