  • 44 in 88

    Hey there all,

    Today is a great day for me, I have hit my second goal and I am feeling Brilliant!
    Atkins has changed my life, I have not felt this good in many years, it's brilliant to find a WOE that really suits you and is not hard to stick to.

    Today is day 88 for me and I'm 44lbs down, the best of all is seeing people who you haven't seen for ages, the reactions are hilarious indeed!
    It's a wonderful thing to be able to play with my sons and not be tired all the time!
    There is one thing even more important than the weight loss, it's the mood and attitude change that has taken place in me over the last 88 days.

    All of us here battle with weight and when you are very big you are uncomfortable and unhappy (at least I was )
    I had become a very grumpy, short tempered old fart which was not really nice for all concerned, including me

    Last night when I was putting my youngest son to bed (Justin who is 9), he asked me to get down and give him a hug, which I can do now
    He then said something that really floored me!
    The said "Daddy I'm really glad you have lost weight, you are not grumpy anymore and I love you stacks, you are the best dad I ever could have"

    Well, after that, as you can imagine, I was over the moon, if that isn't inspiration to loose the rest then I don't' know!!!

    So all I say is is the way to go, don't just out a bit and give yourself a break, your water every day, at least 30min 5 times a week and your will think you are



    All you Atkineers take care now,

    Stuart
