  • Hello and Thank you!

    Hello, I have been lurking for the past week and have already found the board to be so helpful and friendly, that I was eager to join!

    I am on my fourth week of Atkins, doing extended induction, and have a lot of weight to lose. I have been engaged to an awesome guy for about 3 years, but have been delaying the wedding because I didn't want to be a 'fat bride'. Well, I dont' know why this month was different then the last three years, but I am seriously committed to losing weight right now!!

    I haven't been losing as much weight as I had hoped, but by reading this board I noticed quite a few things I was doing wrong by mistake. So I am very thankful I found this site!

    I am looking forward to posting and getting to know everyone Thank you for listening, have a great day!

    Welcome to the board, Mary!

    I can see you already know how awesome this board is. And every bride is the most beautiful woman in the room that day. But maybe this plan can help give you the confidence to plan the date and move ahead with your life. You can do this! Look around all of us are doing it. We're here to support you.

    Good luck!
    Jim

        My mini-goal is to lose 30 pounds by mid August, and then I will plan a date for my wedding. I am confident this will happen though
